Artist's Description
This amazing swan was sitting patiently while four of its newborn were staying close. One of two additional eggs are getting ready to burst to add to the brood.

Later, the father of this brood will emerge and provide support in raising the young ones, including some stern warnings if you get to close. For now, the mother is confident that no one will interfere.

Wow, so wonderful you could get this close to this mother and babies! Swans can be quite nasty and protective if they feel threatened so they must have learned to be tolerant of people. Great opportunity to get this very cute and well done shot, Dick!
