Parents and four imature Cygnets came to visit today - when the cygnets turn completely white - which will be soon - the male parent will run them off - very forcibly.

Lovely family photo. You are so lucky they come to you.
The all-important comma. But you're right. Doug does seem very human.
Those neck reflections make this shot for me, Cliff. Looking forward to seeing the continuing saga.
Actually the one "throwing up" over the thought is the female - actually the mother - so it is hard to determine whether the female is throwing up over the thought of losing her precious babies or the dreadful anticipation that she must - after the rejection - start laying the nest for another group of cygnets this year - an annual requirement of these birds.(She isn't really "throwing up" but browsing in an area of underwater attraction they they all got invovled in).
