It's that time again

I went to the Common today to find the new family of swans had appeared since my last visit, which admittedly was several weeks ago. Spookily I took a similar photo on this day last year. The male swan was keeping a good eye on the dog walkers who had stopped for a chat by the edge of the pond, see extra. I decided to keep my distance as swans can be a bit vicious if they feel threatened in my experience. I also spotted a family of ducks but they are no where near as cute as the cygnets, also in extra.
