Swan family swimming on the canal away from Wightwick towards Compton. Unusually, there seem to be two different generations of young in the convoy.
The adult pair are in the lead. Next comes a cygnet from the current year’s brood, still with the juvenile brown parches in its plumage. Tail-end charlie seems to be the survivor of the previous year’s crop. Plumage adult white, but a bill which seems still to be changing to the orange colour of a mature bird.
