Another beautiful day here...had a great walk down by the river with Isla and Zack, who enjoyed it as always. It was great to see the swans down there today when I actually had the camera with me. They nested down there earlier in the year and when I first saw the cygnets as tiny fluff balls there were five of them, down to three now but they are big and healthy, so the parents have done very well.

ZacK launching!
