Mute Swan Mama

I have been watching the parents of these 5 babies over the last few days. It is interesting the patterns that they swim in, the are always keeping the babies between the parents to ensure that the Birds of Prey that are not far away, don't have a direct line to snatch up one of the babies.

 

In addition the Swans are being very forgiving of everyone who wants to see the babies. They come out for a number of hours each day to the same pond, they feed for a bit and then the parents hustle them back to safety.
