Bless Aunt Agnes

It's feeding time for the waterfowl .  As we entered the swan cottage, Aunt Agnes was sitting on the nest keeping the eggs warm.  She's there all the time. 
 Nice looking nest, Aggie!

 This time she got off the nest to come over to say hi. 

 There are still just two eggs. 

 Agnes is gathering more straw and adding it to the top of the nest.    She spends a lot of time sitting on her nest. She's a good auntie!

 And where are the negligent parents, Hazel and Buster?   They don't want to miss a meal!
Dad puts their food in a sheetrock bucket so the greedy Mallards don't come inside and eat all of the grain.   There is another food dish outside for them at the water's edge.   These two really don't spend much time inside the house. 

 This is one the Greglag geese.    Dad has quite a few of these. 

 There is a pecking order when it's time to eat. He's chasing somegoosie away~

 These are Emperor geese~

 If you stare at her feathers long enough, you kinda get dizzy!

The nesting box still doesn't have any takers.   Maybe dad needs to paint the inside walls a pretty color and hang some paintings?!

So that's the latest on the black swan family.  We'll let you know if anything exciting happens!

So until next time............

Love ya lots♥
