Description Two byooootiful baby swans. I went to the park yesterday to do homework and kind of...got...distracted a little. There were three cygnets and a mummy swan, together by the lake. I went up to them, keeping a respectful distance, and started taking photographs. Then I sat there for a bit, watching them. After a few minutes one of the bigger ones (a male, I think) started waddling closer to me, nibbling grass and squeaking. The others followed suit, until I had to use the macro setting to take pictures of them! If I had moved they probably would have scarpered. After about half an hour of frantic nibbling, they went to sleep all at once in the sun.
I went over to take some photos of the dad, however, and he wasn't quite as accepting of my company. He did warn me though. My fault.

I don't know, because firstly they're not ducklings, and secondly they're not ugly at all! lol...and yet a human baby that looks like a wrinkled old potato is called beautiful. How can people be so...weird? lol...
