  • Swans nest by pond and eggs hatching, birth of cygnets on Hampstead Heath, North West London. Unusually this year one pair of swans built their nest very near to the fence so it was visible. Many people watched in appreciation and delight as the swans built their nest, laid the eggs and they hatched. Eight eggs were laid, seven hatched and now a few weeks later six cygnets are growing and surviving.

    • @Sian.l.whitehead
      @Sian.l.whitehead  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Once cygnets have hatched they stay close to their mother. It is more the job of the male swan to be the protector of his family. I would not go too close to them as I wouldn’t want to worry them, or be seen as a possible threat. When they are in the water they tend to keep their distance but occasionally they would swim over for food. You are right the swans are very protective of their young and would be aggressive if they are threatened. There is a fence in front of the nest so it is not easy to get too close which is a good thing for all concerned.

    On Friday down where I live, I was feeding the father, mother, and three baby swans. When I got home on the news it said the father Swan had gotten killed. I saw 2 irresponsible dog owners make their dog stay in the water and watched as it almost attacked the swans, I asked them to leave but they just kept their dog on a lead until i left. Knowing that I was the last to ever feed that Swan gives me shivers. I am horrified that I dont have any evidence.

    • @Sian.l.whitehead
      @Sian.l.whitehead  7 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Thanks for leaving your comment though I am sad to hear about what you have said. It does make me very annoyed that dog owners allow their dogs to get very close to where the adult swans with their young are in the water. They don't have to allow this to happen. It causes a lot of distress to the swans and cygnets and is of no benefit to dogs either. It is a shame you did not take a photo of the dog and dog owner . When a dog kills a swan they can be fined as swans are a protected species. It is not unusal that the male swan gets killed at this time of the year when they are protecing the female on the nest or the young cygnets. I think it is tragic. I have also heard of female swans being killed also trying to protect their young. The male swans are only being agressive as they are trying to defend their family. Dog owners who allow their dogs to get into a fight are not only irresponsible, they obviously don't care about their dogs or other wildlife. They need to be caught and. fined.

      Update on the swans:
      I went to see the mother and babies and feed them today, and I found that one of the babies have died. it's only 2 babies and their mother..

    • @Sian.l.whitehead
      @Sian.l.whitehead  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      yes swans do normally pair up for life as long as other things do not interfere with that. I did see to my surprise one pair of swans swap partners There was a female who had lost its mate and had a cygnet to look after. A pair of other swans flew in and the new male adopted the female with the cygnet and the other female was then abandoned. As the new male with its new partner got together it did mean there was protection for her cygnet after losing her original mate So the male become the cygnet's surrogate parent from what I gather I think that is unusal but it meant the cygnet was more likely to survive. The next year they went on to mate again and they are still together, years later. .

      Where these swans are and build their nest I am always saying that dog walkers should keep their dogs on leads near the ponds but it is rare that they do. This year in a different pond in same area dog walkers allowed their dogs into the pond where the mother swan and her five cygnets were. She suffered five attacks from dogs in a week. Luckily she survived. Dog walkers are being very selfish in this respect.

      The cygnets are vulnerable particularly in the first 2 weeks after hatching. Usually one doesn’t survive due to natural causes. And yes there are predators: in the water they can be killed by pike, also a large gull can take one, dog attacks !
