  • Krys Bailey replied

    Thanks Andy! This visit the cygnets were mostly a little older than I had snapped before so I tried to get the “family” photos for a change! ;o)

    This is so so beautiful, I have added a Cygnet today but all its siblings disappeared, I wish I lived nearer to Abbottsbury, I have been there but many years ago, its a wonderful place,

  • Krys Bailey replied

    Thanks Ann! Indeed Abbotsbury has some amazing swans and cygnets – everywhere you look at this time of year! Get there in early June is my advice! ;o)

    Lovely tender shot, Krys. Hans Andersen was wrong!

  • Krys Bailey replied

    Hahaha! Thanks Steve! Yep, I can never understand how they got the title of Ugly Ducklings! To me, the baby swan is one of the cutest critters imaginable! Still we’ll allow Hans some artistic licence else we wouldn’t have that wonderful fairy tale! Have a great weekend! ;o)

    I’ve never seen baby swans, Krys, so this is a treat for the eyes. I love their fuzziness, their closeness to each other, the tight crop which accentuates the story this photo tells. Isn’t it amazing when two swans are together, their necks seem to always form a heart? In my little mind, I see this as yet another reminder of the great love of our Creator. Thank you for sharing this!

  • Krys Bailey replied

    Thanks Bonnie – these were larger babies – there were tinier ones too – all milling around wherever you looked (or stepped)! ;o) Everyone who visits this place has a big smile on their face seeing these cutest of God’s babies….... ;o)
