Christine Walliss, The Rapid Growth Of Three Cygnets (ANIMAL 2021)

This family was born on the 07/10/2020. Two months earlier she had three babies, all dying within the first three days. They rebuilt another nest in a different spot and had six new babies, over a few days there were only three left. Now two months on, there are three healthy offspring. The first photography was taken when they were three weeks old, the seconded photography was when they were five weeks old and the last one it when they were nine weeks old. After the first disaster, these three little babies have given not only me but many other people great delight at our local wetlands.
