Cygnets Enjoy Their First Day

In Editor Choice, Local, Photo Gallery

The beauty of nature came into the world over the past few days south of Grafton.

It appears seven out of eight cygnets hatched along with a small nest of red-winged black birds.

The baby swans came out of their shells on Friday, May 21, 2021 and early Saturday morning were slowly taking in the world around them.

Nearby four small birds were resting in their nest .

Two videos show both babies learning about the world around them.
