Swans are common along the shores of West Island., Fairhaven,MA This swan was video taped at Hoppy's Landing and walked right up to the camera. He wasn't bashful at all. MLBaron SkyWarn video
BIRD WATCHER CAROLYN LONGWORTH WARNED:
Nice, but watch out! One swan at Mill Road chased me and my mother into
my car and stood outside pecking at it! We had set up a table to play
Scrabble far away from him, but I guess the white car looked like a giant
rival swan to him!!!
I also learned that although riverbanks are public ways in England, many
of the landowners keep swans to discourage hikers.
