Cheeky Corvids / Contortionist

I went for a wander by the river this afternoon. These swans let me get remarkably close without spooking.
There were a few crows (or something similar, I can't tell!) hanging around the swans, trying to steal tail feathers. The swans were having none of it, and the crows got a honk, hiss, and/or nip for their trouble.
I was lucky enough to catch this one coming in for another go.
The swans then let me get even closer and carried on preening.

I took these with a 50mm lens on a full-frame body, so I was really quite close.

One more after the jump.
