(Not so) black swan

I'm going to see the 'Black Swan' at the movies.

Since I don't have a picture of a black swan yet, I give you a stretching-his-wings white swan :)

Question: How is a female swan called in greek?!?

Home, sweet home!

Behold where the King of Stuttgart spends his days (and his nights perhaps!)

p.s. I have no idea what it really is...

Munich

It sounds fitting, to actually publish a picture from Munich...
Nymphenburg Palace used to be the King's summer residence. Today, parts of it are a museum, not very extraordinary I have to say. Some other parts are not available to the public.
Nevertheless, the garden hosts plenty of beautiful birds ready to pose in front of your camera, especially the swans!
