A Frosty Chinese Farewell
Another generation of Nairn cygnets are being expelled from the River today.
Penny and Duke seem to have adopted the start of Chinese new year as the start of spring, (coincidentally this date is also the Chinese belief as the start of spring.)
It was obvious that Duke and Penny were in a determined mood to start the expulsion.
Duke in particular was very aggressive and backed up by Penny, the cygnets have got the message that their nursery days are over.
They've had 9 months of great care and attention and are now fit for life's journey.
They are the 10th generation of Penny and we wish them well.
Pics tell the story of todays frosty farewell.
