Swan with Cygnets

That is adorable!! Beautifully captured shot.

Glad you like it Eunice..........thank you. I was a joy to see them.

Adorable is the perfect word Keith!! Mum having a welcome rest whilst the gorgeous cygnets are asleep! I love the the swan's pose that you've captured so beautifully. I also love the little reflection of the babies and the shot is even better full screen!

Hope you're keeping cool in this hot weather Keith!!

I can't argue with that Rosa.........it was so lovely to see them, and they were quite close as well.

Thank you for your generous comments.

To be honest we're struggling a bit in this heat and apart from our weekly shop have stayed in today, except I popped out to get the AC in the car re-gassed - that was essential :-)

Glad you've got the AC sorted Keith. I've only been food shopping and for once, it was quite nice along the chilled section :-))

Das ist ja eine entzückende Szene,wie diese kleinen Kücken drinnen schlummern lieber Keith,die Mutter schaut auch etwas relaxt aus,solch eine schöne Entdeckung habe ich leider noch nie gehabt,da hast du eine sehr schöne Tieraufnahme machen können :))

Wünsche noch einen schönen Nachmittag,ganz liebe Grüße Güni :))

Thanks Güni..............glad yo9u enjoyed this shot. We're very lucky to have a lot of swans in this part of the country,.

Have a lovely evening...........I hope it is not too hot for you.

Sleeping cygnets still the nest..and motherly pride
Marvelous, Keith!

Oh how absolutely fabulous Keith. Those cygnets are adorable.

Thanks Jenny..........glad you like this one.

Seems they are in a floating nest....

Not floating completely, but in the shallows very near the bank.

prachtig plaatje hoe mama de kleintjes in de gaten houd

Thanks very much Fred. Swans are generally good parents. Glad you like this shot.

So very cute! Well done to catch them while they are still so young and fluffy!

They are indeed..............I can't resist taking photos when I see them. Glad you liked this one and thanks for dropping in.

Was für eine bezaubernde Aufnahme, Keith! Familienglück der Schwäne. Diese kleinen flauschigen Knäuel muss man einfach mögen.

Glad you like this one Wilhelm...........they really are cute!

Mama schläft, während die Kinder brav im Zimmer spielen.... :)
