Cygnets First Flying Lesson ~ 28 Feb 2017

At Roukenglen Pond, East Renfrewshire, Scotland the resident swans had 7 cygnets in 2016 which all survived .. last day of Feb 2017 and they are getting their first flying lesson. Excuse the total amateur video ..small hand held camera and the cygnets all began to find their wings at the same time .. I had no idea where they would come from next. Fascinating to watch though.
