Nurture

NURTURE

Every year two black swans return to one of the lakes on the farm and I am sure they are the same swans each year. Some years after all of their efforts the baby cygnets don’t make it and succumb to the harsher side of nature … some years they do and it is such a joy to watch them grow and eventually fly off. Regardless of the outcome both parents dutifully nurture the eggs in the twiggy nest they have constructed together for their young.
