Not sure who was honking louder in excitement. The swans or my neighbour and I watching. 😜 They are now sitting. Hatchlings due in few weeks. Another pair of swan interlopers turn up now and again as well. Very entertaining! Here's hoping Geoff, our Musk Duck, doesn't think the cygnets are tasty. I suspect a few of our Grey Teal chicks have ended up in his belly. 😳
