Went for my flu jab this morning.As it was a lovely sunny morning,I went for a walk in Abington Park which is close to my doctor's surgery.A sad sight in the lake....a dead swan(looked like a grown cygnet).It was being pecked by 2 adult swans.They looked quite distressed,probably their youngster. I think it may have been a victim of Avian Flu,which is spreading throughout the country and decimating many bird species.
Many thanks for all your views,comments and favs,always much appreciated.
Such a beautiful image -capture and presentation, and a well-chosen title! What a shame re the dead cygnet, it sounds as if the parents were distressed and perhaps trying to revive the chick! fav
A great candid and so pretty with the dappled light. Fav. Glad you got your flu shot, Carol! We need all the protection we can get (at least that's my take). And that's a sad story about the swan. That would have been hard to see.
