The cygnets, nearly-swans, were a source of interest on North Pond, Bishops Waltham. But last time I was there on the long wooden footbridge which crosses the pond, they were nowhere to be seen. A look around the other end of the pond accessible by the main road, also revealed only their absence.

 

And then a friend told me that they are taken to a sanctuary for safe-keeping during the winter. So, hopefully, spring will show them all, resplendent in their fully-grown white plumage and hopefully we will be allowed there to take their photo.
