Baby Love at Lost Lagoon

I have given up on finding the Beaver for the time being, we didn’t look very hard the second time so I will likely go on more beaver hunts but now I am on a baby swan and baby mallard kick only saw one raccoon today.  One swan down at Lost Lagoon has a cygnet with her and it is adorable but there is another one sitting on a half open egg and apparently a couple that haven’t cracked yet, felt like everyone got to see her stand up and see the eggs but me but she just sat there heavily guarded by a male who spent the whole time I stood there watching her talk to her eggs sleeping. It is awesome that  there are more cygnets to come fingers are triple crossed that a couple more make it, this is very exciting to me, and  it should also give me various opportunities to keep practicing with the camera.

she does NOT like me.

baby.

    damn skippy. i am only an observer. i cannot interfere with the population.
    i have found plum sauce, though mildly acidic, is benign, and can therefore be strewn about in slow motion in nature.

    It’s strange how you never see little pots of plum sauce floating by.
