I came along at just the right time on Sunday as the swans headed across the marsh toward their feeding area. The six cygnets took on a good feed while one of the adults kept a watchful eye on me and their surroundings. The cygnets have more than tripled in size since I first spotted them on June 30th.

A Great nature scene with those lovely swans. The composition of various colours is very appealing. Its nice that you can follow the evolution of the family.

Terrific shot of the swan family and the habitat around them Heather. The marsh is so pretty with the calm water and the reflection of the family and the marsh grasses. Very nice lighting and composition. They certainly do grow fast.
