My
story and photographs continue from MONDAY and WEDNESDAY's posts when I was at the National
Trust Property of Mount Stewart.
“OK
Mum, just a little bit further and then we will let them play a while and show
them how we upend ourselves to find food.” he says.
I
was photographing from here at the side of this bank at the lake.
“Dad,
we are tired now, can we go back?", two of the cygnets say.
"You all have done very well on your first outing so we will head back but keep close to the reeds as the evening is closing in" he told them.
I
walked on and left this lovely new family to themselves and I just could not resist taking a
final shot of them in the distance as they neared their nest site.
I
am linking with SATURDAY CRITTERS.
Many
thanks for visiting and also leaving any comments.
Awww.
ReplyDeleteWhite swans always seem so very exotic to me.

ReplyDeleteHi Margaret.
ReplyDeleteOne of the pairs where I walk had a brood, but a Mink got the lot.
These idiots that use to release those animals should see the damage they are doing now.
So nice to see the Cygnets.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures and some really good reflections.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful sight Margaret. So nice to see the white swans, we have the black swans in WA, beautiful also in a dramatic way, but the white swans are so pretty ✨
ReplyDeleteAww! The babies are adorable.
