Now Six.

         A second visit to Springburn Park to see the swans and their five cygnets. At the last visit there were five cygnets but we thought the parents were still sitting on at least one more egg. Well today proved that to be correct, as there were six cygnets merrily paddling around their parents. It was interesting to see the parents drag weeds up from the bottom of the pond and drop it in front of the cygnets and watch them feeding on it. Another pleasant outing, Stasia as usual, was the hand behind the camera.

Evening Walk.

       Pandemic or no pandemic, nature just keeps on going. This wee video was shot this evening in Springburn Park on one of our walking exercise outings. There is always something new, something different each time we wander around the park. We counted five cygnets and four ducklings, but we think the swan is still sitting on at least one egg. There are more ducks of different varieties, but so far we haven't seen any other ducklings. The irises around the duck pond are just starting to open, should be quite a sight when they do, worth another visit.

Enjoy.
