We saw this youngster with its parents a couple of days ago on the Driotwch Canal whilst we were out walking, the following day they were all in the marina and now he’s on his own but seems to like it and is sticking around visiting the pontoons forever hopeful!
It must be time for the young to leave their parents. We have a swan family with 2 youngsters in the marina and two days ago they started chasing the young ones off. Now the parents visit alone so I'm guessing the young ones have gone to start their adult lives.

I think it must be traumatic to be chased away from like that - it fairly upsets me when I see it!
DeleteCarol, we hate it too. I feel so sorry for them. E
