Swan, Sitting on Nest

April Challenge: Scavenger - Seasonal

This is the season for laying and hatching eggs. I'm not sure which is the case here.
The Swan did not stand up to reveal if she has laid her eggs yet.

Swans have been returning to this pond for over a decade and to the delight of
local families the eggs usually hatch the Cygnets close to Mother's Day.

I thought of using this for Water Reflection but I'll save that for a sunny day.
