Welney Swan Roost


It was minus 12 degrees on my car thermometer at Welney when we arrived yesterday morning and I don't think the temperature rose much even when the fog cleared a bit and the sun came out. Everywhere except for the water right in front of the hide is frozen so not many swans came into roost in the evening. However, the quality and colour of the light made up for the comparative lack of flying. These are in chronological order showing the colour change in the light from a cold blue to the pinks after the sun had set. These are Whooper Swans except for the final Mute Swan. More of the frost and birds to follow!
