Amazing how large the cygnets are now - it was only two months ago I was taking pics of them hatching from their eggs!
Saw my chums, the swan Family, on my stroll home this evening. The cygnets are getting so large now, Ma and Pa are doing well for first time parents.

The swans and their cygnets were passing under the Walker Bridge at Polwarth as I walked to work this morning. They're so much bigger already.

This was literally the first moments of life for this tiny fella. Welcome to the planet, little one. Can't believe how fortunate I was to witness this little miracle happening.

The swans nesting on the Union Canal this evening, my chum confirmed there are several eggs in the nest, so fingers crossed we will have some cygnets in a few weeks, this pair's very first breeding season.
We've been without cygnet the last couple of years, since losing the previous breeding pair, Penelope and Tulius, so hoping we have some cone May
