Description:

Yesterday 4 eggs of the Swan couple opposite our house hatched and we could enjoy seeing these youngsters swimming by. Today they went for a longer trip and two of them obviously became tired. No problem, as mum offered them a free ride on her back. When she had to climb back on shore, the two kids on her back were simply thrown off. Why making things more complicated than they need to be....?
