Super Cute Black Swan Cygnets in Dawlish - Week 2

It's never easy looking after seven cygnets out of eight eggs, and during week two, two of the cygnets were sadly taken by seagulls.
@BeachCamsMan has been out filming again and at least now they're much bigger; it will be much more difficult for these to be taken.

Thanks for showing the cygnets’ progress. They looked much bigger at the end of the video!

Sad we lost another chick to a gull. The probability was it was the same gull as before. Some gulls, loosely described as predator gulls, once started on the path of raiding chicks of other gulls and birds, they continue to do so. Unfortunately they teach their young the same behavior rather than forage for their other natural foods.
Thanks Neil. Another brilliant video. Particularly loved the close ups of the signets. Shows off your great camera skills as they were very sharp.

That's the natural world at least not by us this time. Been attacked by Gulls myself when eating in my garden.

Not nice to report a death but that is nature. Just a quick check that Bertie hadn’t sent out for a sneaky bag of chips?
