Yesterday we went to see some property that is being looked after by one of the women who fosters for us. It belongs to her sister who is in a rest home. We went just because there are 2 day old mute swans in one of the ponds.
I took a lot of pictures and a few vids. Mom and dad have been there for 8 yrs now. They were at the far end and when dad saw us on the bridge, he made a flying beeline for us, honking. Then he put his feet down and skidded right up to us. By then, mom and the babies were slowly making their way to us. Wendy feeds them a corn mixture and lettuce. The parents stir up the bottom of the pond so the food rises to the top for the babies to eat. I’m going to post a couple of pictures.
