Cygnets

I have been hunting down cygnets for weeks. I made several unsuccessful visits to various locations and sadly, a nest that was being watched for me was attacked by a minx the day after the cygnets hatched, but today I found some, by chance, in a park in St Albans.

Here are a couple, the rest can be found on flickr here:  St Albans cygnets

College Lake, Tring

I went to College Lake in Tring hoping to see cygnets and kingfishers - I saw neither, but it was beautiful and tranquil and I did enjoy snapping away with the sound of birds singing all around.

Here is a taster and more can be seen on flickr.
