In a very surprising wedding crasher situation, a magnificent white swan became the buzz of the celebration for all the appropriate reasons. Strategically outside the window of the venue, the unwelcome but tenacious guest created what could only be characteristically fairy tale-like scene. The graceful bird's appearance brought an unexpected but captivating aspect to the wedding celebrations since it patiently peered through the glass at the continuous celebration with almost human-like curiosity in the events.
The swan's obvious obsession on the food dishes inside, showing an amazing awareness of the gastronomic pleasures usually presented at wedding receptions, made this situation very funny. Its deliberate attitude and relentless focus suggested a sophisticated gate-crash who knew exactly what it was lacking. The scene brilliantly caught the funny junction of human celebrations and wildlife, reminding us that perhaps the most unforgettable wedding events are those that couldn't have been scheduled. The swan's spontaneous visit provided visitors with entertainment as well as a reminder that, invited or not, nature often has its own way of joining in our particular events.
