All At Sea



Our Swans returned to the river the following day, eager for sustenance provided by the Trust.


Today, yet another scare by a canoe coming downstream chasing all the wildlife away from the Town water. 


The Swans also driven out to sea yet again by the curse of canoes and kayaks, depriving visitors and locals from seeing our peaceful wildlife on the town water. With the sea like a millpond, the boating enthusiasts should stick to the coastal water and leave the Town wildlife in peace.

All At Sea - Swans Protocol


An anxious few hours for Penny this morning as Popeye took the Cygnets on an extended sea journey - well along the coast.

Penny was pacing up and down the river calling for her beloved family for over 2 hours. Eventually I spotted them about half a mile away, with Popeye leading them back home.

After entering the river mouth, the cygnets did a short run - flight up the river after spotting Penny who was heading down stream to meet them.



An aggressive posture was adopted by both parties until the usual swan protocols were observed and bonding was complete.


Valuable knowledge was no doubt gained by the cygnets.
Series of pics tells the story.
