Gathering

Its time for nest building for our local swan family.  All but one of the signets has been sent on their way now.
I was interested to see how the nest building proceeds.  It seems to involve the cutting and gathering of reeds which are floated on top of the water by the nest-this involves a lot of stretching see photo 3.  The cut material then must be gathered up later on, and woven into the nest platform.
Day off today, which is nice.
