A good year.

This cob and pen (out of shot) appear to have done a marvellous job over the last nine months to raise five cygnets to juvenile status (albeit of varying size!).
I'd imagine the next couple of months will see the break up this particular family unit in time for the next batch but for the moment they appear to be very close, living as they are on "The Ocean" on the Stroudwater Navigation.
Keep 'em coming you two!
