Proud Papa

Vancouver Island, BC

The nesting black swan pair that we have been watching hatched out their first babies today! They have three cygnets and the cob (male) was protectively swimming around their island and gently 'talking' with his mate. It was a great sight and there'll be pictures of the babies tomorrow.
