An Intimate Moment ....

.... and in front of the children too!

Dad was trying his best to chase his youngsters away but with six of them his attempts failed. 
Plenty of chasing, short flights with mighty splashing but to no avail. With two islands in the Rouken Glen pond it's quite easy for the youngsters to keep out of the way.
I hung around the pond for as long as I could but my hands were getting so cold that I eventually left the swans and headed back to the car.
