    It's crazy I know. They surf better than I used to do. I would never have thought they did that, but were pretty adventurous here in Oz!

    Very interesting, Isac.
    I have not seen any Black Swans near any of our coastal beaches but a lot are inland but none are surfers even when it is conditions are rough on the lakes and rivers.

    I think they prefer the warmer climate and those Gold Coast beach babes are probably a draw card too. :)
    Our lakes have had no swans lately until one appeared yesterday and seems to be on its own. No surf here either. 40 degrees and calm.
