Bath time for Mrs Newbie. Returned from a week away to just 4 cygnets although from now on this lot should be big enough to make it. 🤞🏻

Life is full of 🦢🦢🦢🦢🦢🦢🦢 and 🐈⬛ 🐈⬛ 🐈⬛ and 🚣 and 🔨 💍 but I’ll update from time to time. Here’s a bit of Monty & Cecil for you. They offer hours of amusement.

I do generally update more on insta stories these days as actually I don’t find 🦋 as interactive as twitter was, so spend less time here.

Currently five cygnets. This is tough but this is nature.

This is from a couple of days ago. Unfortunately we are down to 7 cygnets now. This is just nature. There are lots of things that can predate them when they are so small.

It was all going so well until two seconds later when the kitten decided Bertie’s tail looked fun to play with. They all jumped two foot in the air and scattered in all directions.

Bert 🐈⬛ is like the awkward kid in the playground that wants to join in the game but not sure how. This is an improvement from just running away if the kittens looked at him.

All eight still thriving. That little pickle on the ramp eventually worked out it was better to walk to the top and go across the flat bit.

Clever little fluffers always work out how to use the ramp. This ramp has been used successfully for a few years now.

If you see any video, and don’t count 8 cygnets, please check back in older posts before commenting that that you ‘can only see… cygnets’. I’ll be sure to tell you if we lose any. At this stage they are very vulnerable to all sorts of predators including very large fish, magpies, crows, foxes etc

All eight hatched. One 24 hours after the others so it’s only a day old, and busy trying to keep up with its older siblings. And yes it does catch up to them in the water.

She has sat ceaselessly for the incubating period. No help from the Mr. She must be so hot and thirsty. A really quick in and out dip for her. The babies normally go on the water in the first 24 hours. In my experience dawn tomorrow for the first dip.

It’s hatching day! I’ve only had a couple of glimpses so don’t know if all 8 have hatched yet.

What’s his problem? (Sound up.)
*Either Bert was looking at him or he was cross I moved the bird feed that he’d knocked to the ground or both.
