Born on the eve of winter….. (1)

These 2 black swan chicks were born on the 1st of november 2018 (information from local forester).
A birth on the eve of winter is a great oddity among birds !

Were the swans confused by the long, very hot and dry summer that we had this year ? Who knows…..

Will the chicks survive a severe winter ? We’ll see…..
