walk with nature

the Black Swans started out with 5 eggs. 3 babies hatched in a snow storm. then sadly one was taken by something bird, hawk, owl, seagull, osprey, fox, turtle, bobcat those are the guesses. The food tray near the nest was attacked by seagulls see here (over 12 seagulls) and the swans got in attack mode but really just stood their ground. I suggest we move it away from the nest.
anyway, fun for 2 hours. The moments of happiness we enjoy take us by surprise. It is not that we seize them, but they seize us. Ashley Montagu

There is nothing in which the birds differ more from man than the way in which they can build and yet leave a landscape as it was before.
