Family outing

It's good to see how many happy family groups of mute swans are out and about over the Somerset Levels this year. These parents have reared 6 safely so far, and I've seen another family with 8 and many others with 5 or 6.

These parents protect them very well. Nice to see this happy family.

@thewatersphotos - yes they don't have a call to speak of, not entirely mute but compared to other swans they have little voice!
