A Whooper Swan was doing a bit of grooming with a purple iris backdrop at Swan Lake.

Swan Lake Iris Gardens is a public park in Sumter, SC and has been home to all eight known swan species.

Many of the iris beds have undergone thinning and resetting since we were last there so the flowers weren’t as dramatic, but it was still pretty nice!
