You specialists are awesome! PS: The swans are hanging out between the fresh water and ocean (I realize now). It is that spot where the fresh meets the ocean. The other 3 babies are still fine. I still feel badly about the other baby and still feel the bread contributed to his weaker body. However, I put him in a safe place near his nest where he was born. The dad was still trying to protect his dead body from the ducks. It was so sad. Thank you, and it does seem that the mom and dad are keeping them away from the pesky people trying to feed them. I am happy they are smart!! Attached another pic of the 1st egg that hatched.
