Went for a walk and an early breakfast in Emsworth this morning. As I walked back along the old mill pond I saw four swans in the space of about 50 metres. Not one of them was alive.
The first was on the name plaque of “Swan Cottage”. The second was a garden ornament. The third was a stained glass doorway. The fourth a silhouette also on the side of a house.
There were also plenty of living swans too, but this morning it was those representations that caught my eye.

If those swans allowed you to get that close to take a photo, then they must be pretty friendly.
Great to see more posts to the blog, once again, Alan! Hope that you and the family had a nice Christmas break and we wish you a very prosperous 2019!
Thank you David. I managed to get reasonably close and then the zoom in the camera did the rest
