I was out on the "Nieplitzwiesen" and met a swan family. The little chick was preening his mom.

I have no idea what a Nieplitzwiesen is (Google isn't helping me either), but it must be an amazing place/state of mind/something if you can find swans and their offspring there. As always, awesome shot!

  Hehe, thank you :)
  
  "Nuthe-Nieplitz" is a integral nature reserve in Brandenburg, Germany.
  
  "Wiesen" is the German-Word for grassland.
  
  Its the name for an area inside the nature reserve. :)

That's adorable and probably a once in a lifetime photo opportunity.
