Swans and other aquatic birds

April 27th, 2011
A few of you may have seen my swan series, following a nesting pair up until their cygnets hatch. In so doing this, I have seen scattered around the nest lots of inappropriate food, especially white bread. As many here will also be capturing similar spring scenes of these and other aquatic birds nesting, I thought this site on what food to give them, if at all, might be useful: http://www.avianweb.com/swandiet.html

I have heard that white bread isn't great for birds, thx for a wonderful article.

Great info. At a local park there were some sick birds a few years ago that prompted them to put up big (ugly) signs that said not to feed the birds. Most seem to ignore them, and feed them in front of the signs. sad.

A great article and I hope many people will read it and take note.
