A random question prompted by today's #cycleRide round #VestAmager: why don't #WaterBirds get seasick?
These 3 #swans are being swung up and down like nobody's business today. If I was out there in my kayak (and crucially not paddling, just sitting still), I'd start to feel nauseous pretty quickly.
Do #birds?

Edited to add photo that went astray..

Pale grey cloudy sky over dark slate grey sea, which lightens to green close to the shore where white sea spray on rocks is just visible. About 5m offshore a group of 3 swans are bobbing up and down on waves about. 30-50cm high
