Masters of the sky.
The bird of prey hovered in midair, its wings beating steadily as it scanned the landscape below for its next meal. Its sharp eyes missed nothing, picking out every movement and detail on the ground below.
As it flew, it seemed to almost dance in the air, its movements graceful and effortless. It was a sight to behold, a true master of the sky.

Swan; To sound, to sing.
The English word swan, akin to the German Schwan, Dutch zwaan and Swedish svan, is derived from Indo-European root swen ('to sound, to sing').
Young swans are known as cygnets or as swanlings; the former derives via Old French cigne or cisne (diminutive suffix et 'little') from the Latin word cygnus, a variant form of cycnus 'swan', itself from the Greek κύκνος kýknos, a word of the same meaning.
An adult male is a cob, from Middle English cobbe (leader of a group); an adult female is a pen.
