The arrival of summer means more people are out and about. The swan family moved away from the boat ramp area to the far side of the pond. I have been able to see them with binoculars and they seemed to be doing well. A couple of days ago they were close enough for me to get a few pictures. So here they are…even though they are a little out of focus!
This is why they stay on the far side of the pond…
Yes, that would be a reason for me to stay on the far side of the pond too. I’m happy to see that all are doing well. Thank you for keeping us updated.
They are getting so big!
My thought exactly, and I am surprised they are still so grey for being as big as they are.
Don’t people like that just drive you crazy? I’m surprised by their color too. I thought the cignets on our little lake last year were almost white by that age. Maybe my memory is playing tricks on me.
or maybe these are just a different bloodline and they mature differently? 🙂
I am also surprised they are still so gray. I thought they would be much whiter by now. Guess I’ll have to do some research on Swans!
They were near the boat ramp again yesterday and I got some closer pictures. I’ll post a few later.
