Hi!
I thought I might send you an update on the swan family. The signets are now about 4 months old and are growing nicely except for one. It still looks about one month old and I have to wonder if the parents didn't drown the wrong baby way back in July. It will be most interesting to see what the parents do when the others learn to fly and are chased away. I would love to know a little about this development problem if you have any information. Thanks, Helen
