A Swan Affair!

There's a long story behind this video! Tristan had been wounded on his leg and in rehab for 2 1/2 months...separated from mate Isolde! Now he was back, but Isolde, not understanding his absence, played hard-to-get at first, and poor Tristan was on the sidelines. He was just out of camera-range in this instance, watching - while Isolde brazenly flirted with one of the little juvenile swans! Oh, how she carried on - our own Mrs. Robinson! (She's the one flapping her wings) Was it her way of getting Tristan's interest again? She certainly had it...he was mesmerized!

And there's a happy ending. The very next day, she and Tristan began getting close to each other once again and were permanently re-united in bliss!

Very nice, & I think I see some other swans in the distant background, close to the shore.
