Our local Ma and Pa swan now have 7 little swans (signets? I have been corrected – cygnets) to take care of.
The boy loves feeding them – plus it is a way to get rid of our old mouldy bread. The swans seem to love it.
“Please sir, may I have some more?”

How many kids have that pleasure right from their back yard? And you want to move back on land? Don’t do it buddy

yes, signets are rings… and they’ll sink right to the bottom!

Apparently, feeding them bread can kill them

That is why our crazy neighbours keep buckets of dog food around – to feed the swans – thus encouraging rodents of the masked variety (and sometimes even the unmasked variety) to hang around slumbering after a feast and use our boat as a path to said feast while we (try to) sleep

Omg! I’ve never seen baby swans before… they look amazing.
(plus the water looks incredible in the photograph)
