Vanquished Cob, Tending his Wounds

I watched this swan fighting two others, they managed to hold him under the water and then one chased him off into the marina, where he rearranged his plumage and tried to regain his dignity.

Aggressive creatures, swans! I once knew someone in a canoe at school got attacked by one and he got pretty badly bruised!

I once watched a swan attacking a Volkswagen Beetle, pulling bits off around the windscreen and wipers. I took a very wide circle around the scene!
