The swans nesting on the Union Canal this evening, my chum confirmed there are several eggs in the nest, so fingers crossed we will have some cygnets in a few weeks, this pair's very first breeding season.
We've been without cygnet the last couple of years, since losing the previous breeding pair, Penelope and Tulius, so hoping we have some cone May

We lost our breeding pair a couple of years back, fingers crossed this new, young couple with their first nest bring us some cygnets again this spring.

Male mute swan I call Tara (Gaelic for Irish kings)
Locals say he took out his mates previous mate to be with her. He’s fierce and loyal.
We are hoping for at least 7 or 8 cygnets this year, as the snappers get most of these beautiful youngins the first 30 days.
