hi - in my local pond there are two swans, they have been there for at least 6 months.i am concerned about their welfare. its started snowing today. its brutally cold outside.a couple of days ago i was at the lake and noticed the swans gathering materials in what looks like some kind of circular nest. itll be nice to see them have young, but they have been in that pond/mini-lake for a long time now. they havent migrated. and these days it is snowing. many people might not go out as much. i am concerned for their welfare. should i call RSPB so they can relocated somewhere safer where they can have their baby?i am worried they'll be exposed to the cold and the elements nonstop over the next few weeks, with little food as hardly much people would go out, and they might lose the baby or starve to death. i have not seen any eggs thus far.it doesnt help also that in the pond i saw lots of rotting full loaves of white bread people just mindlessly throw at them, it actually frustrates me as i bring carefully selected kibbles for them to eat, that contains vitamins and supplements.i would be grateful for a reply? thank you
Pete
