If it's the Same Swan she normal nests on the canal side in the bulrushes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sounds busy for a quiet residential street. There's a few area's like that on your way to brid on the east coast side when you go the scenic route. There's a few little villages with these small ponds dotted around. You normally see a few ducks & odd Swans in summer months. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
