PLAINDEALER PHOTOS By Wayne Gaylord 1 The Ballet Of The Neck What a reach, and there is still some slack as she scouts the area in front of her feet. Traveling to Johnsburg on a tip about a whistling swan taking up residency there, our photographer noted that the bird seemed to be performing a ballet.
