Just occasionally the brooding swan would stand to inspect the eggs. We have to be lucky to be there just at that time and be quick enough with the camera to record the number. The latest opportunity we had revealed six eggs. We are hopeful that when Spring arrives all six eggs will produce live cygnets. This is not guaranteed but we can hope. Peter has stitched together another video of the action near and around the nest for record sake HERE. Two of the three loud bird calls in the video are by a Black Swan and the other is made by a Moorhen (bird with the blue feathers).
