Media notes
One of the two swans started calling intermittently as I walked slowly past, and continued as I recorded an Orchard Oriole nearby. However, the continued to swim closer, so did not seem unduly agitated.
Observation details
The swans flew in at 6 am and remained on the roughly one-acre pond until someone operated equipment nearby (in the early afternoon). The somewhat nest-like area on the tiny island has also had geese on it recently. I suspect it is not an active nest, though it was not there in early April. One end is separated from a peninsula by maybe 2m of very shallow water.
