Community Orchard and Swans

Nice afternoon with Tony and Pene who came over for lunch and then a walk to the fishing ponds and community orchard. Got some apples and tasted some raspberries. Bumped into a girl feeding the family od swans nearby. She said they had been rescued and she was feeding them twice a day with floating pellets. Apparently they were being bullied by other swans at the flashes nearby. They transported them one at a time in dog crates. Seemed like quite a job. They seemed happy enough in their new abode. We noticed them the other day but they hid in the reeds so didnt get too close. We thought it unusual for swans to be there with signets. Then back home for pudding.
