WE ARE CUSTODIANS OF THE PLANET AND HAVE A DUTY TO CARE FOR IT. For the past 18 years I've had the privilege of watching and caring for the resident Swans on our local river estuary. I have been charmed and fascinated by their parental skills and beauty in the water, they are Simply Superb Swans.

Flood Woes
Last weeks flood completely reshaped the entire river, with massive trees and amounts of destruction wreaked along the riverside.
The Swans Island moat has many tons of gravel dumped into the top half, which will have to be removed for the Swans safety.
I also noticed today that a large piece of wire mesh has been torn from the base of the Merryton bridge, which is also a danger to the swans. Scottish water will have to rectify this ASAP before we have an accident !
A massive tree is lodged on the old mooring pole, must weigh at least 5 tons and probably shifted thousands of tons of gravel on the way down the river!
