Warm and not so bright downstream.
Bee on blossom.
Mrs River-Swan is on the nest today.
She's still hoping summat's going to hatch.
The rest of us think it's a lost cause.
Skyscape.
Worcester Cathedral and friends.
A chat with Carol.
Mrs Swan and her four cygnets are now, it seems, 
permanently on the river.
Mr Swan is nearby.
He thinks the entire river, and the park, 
 is his territory and his alone.
This cygnet is now able to eat a whole food pellet.
Narrow boat.
Feeding Angel Wing and partner.
Spag.
Male.
Chirruping.
Almost under Sabrina Bridge.
Blackbird.
Female.
A chat with Cath, Poppy, and Tony.
The problem is, if the eggs hatch, and she takes her 
cygnets onto the river, Mr and Mrs Swan will drown them.
So, we're hoping they don't hatch.
Talk about a lose-lose situation.
