Oh what a beautiful sight Carol. You did very well to get a clear shot of the swans face!
Their nests are huge aren't they! Must work very hard to get them ready.
Take care and have a good day.

Ecobird club has replied to Rosalyn Hilborne club
Thank you very much Rosa. I must admit to being thrilled, - it was a first for me. Yes the nests are huge, I think both swans help to build the nest, but it must still take some time to construct.
Take care and have a good day, - and I hope Rodney is behaving himself!
