Swan update...


It can't be too long, now...
I've been keeping a watchful eye on the swan's nest all week, and it's now that the adult pair are continually sitting on the three eggs. I thought, for one moment during today's early morning visit, that the eggs were beginning to hatch. The parent bird on several occasions stood up to examine the clutch (picture), but by 7:30am there was still no sign of any emerging cygnets.

300mm f/2.8 AF-S Nikkor (VR off). 1/1000 second at f/4. ISO 200. Monopod
