The drought has broken! We have had a very wet August, which is just great for our Lake and the birds which inhabit it. It has been dry to almost so for the last few years. The swans are not wasting any time in expanding their population. There are nests everywhere, and this is the first family of cygnets which I have seen so far.

How cute are they???!!! Love the bright red beak. It sort of anchors the image.

How adorable! I don't see why anyone ever thought baby swans were ugly.
