Swan teaching new babies

The real joy of life is in its play. Play is anything we do for the joy and love of doing it, apart from any profit, compulsion, or sense of duty. It is the real joy of living. Walter Rauschbusch

I had fun today visiting the black swans and the three new babies rushing to keep up. Mom was heading for the food in the pan before the seagulls ate it all.
Seems like they are teaching the little ones to dig in the pond muck to find some tasty treats.
