2024 Swan 2

On the second day after their birth, the number of baby swans reduced from seven to six. By the sixth day, there were four, and by the seventh day, only three remained. On the afternoon of the eighth day, a severe hailstorm struck, lasting about 15 minutes. The hail was significant, expanding the area around the pond by 3 meters. The adult swan had become much more vigilant. When I arrived, it was aggressively chasing the Canadian geese around the pond, even driving a nesting goose from its nest. Fortunately, all three remaining cygnets were safe at that time. However, by the eleventh day, only one cygnet remained.
