The beauty of taking pictures of swans on The New Brighton Model Boating Lake is that the swans are not aggressive. They don't live on the pond but fly in and out every day so they don't have nests to defend. They have no young here so again, nothing to defend. They fly to this shallow pond because they know that there will be a steady stream of people willing to feed them all day. Yesterday I counted 19 swans on this small pond and a constant supply of people coming to feed them.
