Swan downing

The swans at Kingston-upon-Thames are a bit of a phenomenon. There are so many of them and still the people flock to feed them despite the signs up everywhere saying "Don't feed the birds".

During Kingston regatta they cause mayhem cruising across the course of the racing rowers, from the Hampton side of the river where all the burger vans and competitors are to the town side where all the bars and restaurants are…. and back. There can be hundreds of them in dense flocks.
