In our brief interlude of sunshine yesterday, I found myself leaning on the balustrade of the bridge looking down at the river. The swan family were making their way along the bank, sometimes swimming, and sometimes clambering out to walk for a little way along the grass. The cygnets are well grown now, about the same size as the ducks - but I only counted eight of them.
We only counted eight too - I was hoping I was wrong! Mind you, their colouring conceals them well, doesn't it?

Just found the swans - further along the river towards
ReplyDeleteEngland! They are nestled on a small strip of dry-ish land, but sadly we could only count 6 cygnets this time. 4th August
