Two cygnets separated from their parents

Date: 16 May 2015

We were kayaking in our lake by our house and we came up to mom and dad swans and cygnets, I think they were a day or two old. They were startled by us and the babies scattered about and were separated from their mom and dad. They did reunite with 2 of the 4 babies, but will they find the other two? It seems they were going in the other direction and did not seem to want to find the other two babies.

I will go back and look with binoculars to see if they were reunited later?

Will the swans go back and look for the babies?

Thanks
Peg
