Swan Lake ...

... or at least 'the swan's' lake. They really are the royalty. Wonderfully, there's still 7 cygnets.

Heavy duty gardening undertaken after dog walk. Suitable blisters on hands and leaves in hair. Didn't wear gloves or hat.

Mary, Mary, quite contrary,
How does your garden grow?
With abundant green that's quite out of hand
And saplings in many a row.
