[Millet 4,497]

You need to be carefull near them thing's not so much for your saftey..it's your dog you need to worry about..if your pooch get's out of it's depth anywhere near them big thing's they can be drowned..it happened to a spaniel last year or the year before..

oh iv no doubt they could achieve that millet,and hes a c**t of a dog for wanting to get into stuff. more so when they got young to protect. watched the same birds for weeks sitting on eggs,and now there hatched they just sit around wherever they want. you would have thought they would have avoided the path though. apart from poles and pike. what would brave a nip from a swan to get at there young?

 

reason i ask i seen a duck last week with about 8 young swimming behind her,yesterday she was down to 3. im guessing pike.

Is there any documented evidence of a swan actually breaking mans arm them? You hear it all the time, "don't go near a swan, they can break a mans arm easily!"

Complete and utter bollocks, Frann. But, I'll grant you, it's an urban myth that's been going around for a hundred years or more!

Id agree with that but a young child or an elderly person i wouldnt doubt it for a second. Some power in them......
