Black Australian Swans with One Cygnet

One Black Australian Swan pair had a single cygnet on my recent visit to Swan Lake and Iris Gardens.

The youngster was all about practicing his swimming skills.

He didn’t get too far from the parents, who were quick to catch up with him if he paddled off.

Just a little ball of fluff, he exhibited no concern about forging ahead.

Owned and operated by the City of Sumter, SC, Swan Lake Iris Gardens is home to all eight known species of swan.

Thanks, Donna! They are so cute at that age and really nothing to them.
