Birding in the Falkland Islands

• Sunday, February 10, 2008 - Coscoroba Swan cygnets now flying

Went to check on the Coscoroba Swans today at Pleasant Roads Pond and Kelp Point Pond. Saw a total of 13 adult birds and 11 cygnets

 

On Pleasant Roads Pond there were 9 adult birds but no sign of any cygnets.

 

On Kelp Point Pond there was a single pair and on the sea by the pond there was the pair with 11 cygnets, their 6 plus the stolen 5 from the other breeding pair.

Adult pair with their 6 cygnets.

The stolen 5 larger cygnets are now flying.
