                    While we're on the topic, there are (or were last Saturday) Black Swans
                    sitting on a nest in clear view at the tip of the Lake Ginninderra
                    peninsula (just walk out to the end of the boardwalk and look right).
                    They've been on the nest for at least 2 weeks,
                    so the eggs may well have hatched by now
                    (I haven't had a chance to go since Saturday).
 
These eggs hatched today, or some of them did.
There were two cygnets in the nest at about noon
but they had not left it and one parent was till sitting at three this arvo.
