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. Annual Membership to the River Nairn Swans and Waterfowl Trust is £20 for a family, can be paid securely through the PayPal Donate button below. Thank you.

Barren River
With so many winter spates, the river is bereft of precious Algae at this time of year.
The winter sun has been in short supply, which has not helped the situation. Penny is now entering the pre nesting stage, and always on the lookout for Algae in order to help with the production of eggs.
Although both swans are in excellent health, she needs the natural minerals and Algae to produce a good hatch in the coming months.
Sunshine and low water conditions should help the photosynthesis grow the Algae on the river bottom.
