The Wadebridge cygnets as they approach 3 months old. 3rd August 2020

They are just approaching 3 months old and the parents will soon be trying to get them to be independent before next year's breeding season starts again.

The male stayed with the cygnets whilst the female chased 2 other swans from the area with her hackles raised.

Here are a few photos.....
