BLACK SWAN ♥ FOUR CYGNETS
FOLLOW THEIR JOURNEY!
• BLACK SWAN ♥ CYGNETS
The BLACK SWAN is a large waterbird, a species of swan, which breeds in the southeast and southwest regions of AUSTRALIA. Within Australia they are nomadic, with erratic migration patterns dependent upon climatic conditions.
BLACK SWANS are ready for breeding at the age of 18 months, and most breed before the end of three years. They are monogamous breeders that share incubation duties and cygnet rearing between the sexes. In the black swan, males spend more time incubating the clutch than females do. Incubation is between 39 - 43 days. (Initially there were 5 eggs on this nest, one was discarded early on (possibly unfertilised)... the remaining 4 eggs hatched over a period of 3 days.
The swans prefer large, permanent swamps and lakes with emergent and submerged aquatic vegetation. The male swan, tagged with an identification band, for monitoring, as part of a long term study to examine the population biology of Black Swans. The information obtained from the study will build upon the scientific body of knowledge that relates to this species.
CYGNETS... downy, light grey. After 3 - 4 weeks cygnets get light brown feathers. process continues up to fledging at 113 -160 days. Eye and bill begin to colour from 60 days onward.¸.•´இڿڰۣ ♥
THE EXPLORER GEORGE BASS, commenting on the notes of the BLACK SWAN, wrote... 'That song, so celebrated by the poets of former times, exactly resembled the creaking of a rusty ale-house sign on a windy day'... yet many find the black swan's trumpeting musical!

Just when I thought they were all out of danger... at around 11 weeks one young cygnet disappeared.
It broke my heart, as I had been filming them every day, enjoying their rapid growth. I still see the remaining 3 everyday. This week the five (including parents) flew along my lake together. Very memorable and beautiful moment. They have grown into the most gorgeous ( very strong) birds. Thank you for your visit and enquiring about them. Have a wonderful weekend.
Warmest greetings. Bella
Always loved birds, big and small. They are smarter than you can imagine, the sounds they make are so enchanting to listen to. The swan mates for life too, they take care of their babies as a team. How beautiful to watch them emerge...
Oh, how sweet! The little ones tug at my heart strings! The whole family swimming along the lake makes such a precious picture! You have captured nature at its best! I've watched it a few times, over and over. It's mesmerizing and absolutely delightful! Thank you so much for this masterpiece of a capture!
Beautiful family of swans💞💞💞

What a fascinating and beautiful little family. I was sure that last egg was no good but the mother knew much better than I and persevered with her duties. It's remarkable how delicate and loving she is with her little brood. A wonderful video. I guess I'll have to watch the other two videos too which I look forward to after having seen this one. Lovely Bella.
Thank you Eddy.

Amazing video! ... It is wonderful to be able to shoot all these stages of birth of these black swans .... what delicacy in the actions of the beak of the mother ... I am appreciative of your shots so precise and really beautiful .... here we have white swans and I have never seen black swans ... Thank you for this delicious moment Bella! ... I wish you a wonderful weekend! ... ♥ Naturae Vox ♥
Hello Mike, Well, I could come up a very intelligent answer (it's Friday night and my brain has withered from TOO much filming this week!) or I could say, maybe they were once all white and our scorching sun was the problem!... we all turn that colour when we sun bake for too long! As for the 'red'... red and black are very fashionable together! (smiles!) For whatever reason... they are truly a magnificent, elegant bird. Thank you for enjoying my 'special' week! Appreciate your great comment!
Beautiful, heart-warming video, enjoyed watching the nature in its beauty. Lovely music track too.
Warm greetings,
Nadia
Really nice shots and music,enjoyed:)
