This is how you do it!

For the last three months, this male swan has been bringing up his three young at Strichen Lake after the death of his partner.
He has been such an attentive father, staying with them and protecting them etc
I’ve been thinking that it won’t be too long before they try to fly and today, I saw the dad showing them what to do and the extra shows one of the youngsters “having a go”. The other two don’t seem to be quite ready for it yet.
