I love this picture. I think it’s absolutely adorable how these downy cygnets are taking a ride on mommy or daddy’s back.
According to AvianWeb.com, cygnets usually hatch between June and July and within 24 hours, they can leave their nest; within 48 hours, they can actually swim and even dive! The parents both take care of their cygnets, feeding and protecting them.
Thanks for the ride!

As we all know, swans are such beautiful birds. They’re elegant and dainty. The way two swans put their heads together even forms a heart! One thing’s for certain too: their chicks are too cute for words. Just look at these fuzzy guys! Look how puffy they are! How about those adorable beaks? I have one word to conclude with here: awwwwwwwwwwwwww.
What a fuzzy family!

Look at this adorable baby swan, otherwise known as a cygnet or signet. He looks like he’s having very sweet dreams. I wonder if I look nearly that cute when I sleep!
Sweet dreams!
