one of the 5 cygnets born today, who are causing such excitement and pleasure to people walking by the Leen
The Swans who were nesting beside the river Leen have produced 5 cygnets from the 7 eggs laid.

Last year when the swans had nested in the same place they did not raise any young as the eggs were stolen by some youths. They were caught after one of them was offering the eggs for sale on Face book, hence the rejoicing that the cygnets have arrived.
