STANTON PARK
This is yesterday's visit after work for half an hour; I wanted to check whether the mute swans had hatched their eggs. I eventually saw the pair on the water together, but could not see any cygnets with them. Predated? Didn't hatch? Or may be just tucked in at the edge of the reeds, I will need to make a return visit to find out, I think.
