Aw, the cygnets are really sweet. I've been looking for ages for cygnts to photograph but I never seem to get the timing right - either too early or too late.
Mary, you are such a wonderful photographer. Just when I think I've seen the most lovely, heartwarming image possible, you post one that's even better. I just love that photo of the chick tucked into the feathers on mom's back!
Ahhh... Mother Nature !!!...
