Swan Update

Greetings from the Pond!

As you may or may not know, Ethel the Swan is 'with egg'. From what we can tell, there are 3 eggs that she is sitting on in her nest.


Larry, the proud Pappa Swan, is doing what Mother Nature tells him to do, aggressively protecting his mate and the eggs from anyone who might come near it. Unfortunately, this includes their son Conrad Hilli, our 1 year old Cygnet.

Today we relocated Conrad to a new home. He has been adopted by two guests of ours who have a large parcel of land in the south with a fenced pond.

While we are are sad to see Conrad go, we are looking forward to the arrival of a new batch of Cygnets in early May. Maybe even in time for Mother's Day!

Stay tuned for more Swan Updates this Spring.
