These guys found a break in the ice and all squashed up together, maybe their feet were aching from all that walking! I caught a bit of one of the adults grabbing a quick dip, looking for some food. This is another one from last Friday, Jan 7th.
Aww, cute! I remember the swans at baby time near where I grew up- the mums were terrifying if you got near their babies so I'm very impressed with this! :)
