Here’s another photo I took during the summer. The photo doesn’t capture them all, but there were more than 50 swans on the like. I have never seen that many before, so it was a very special experience for me. There were some young swans too, but I guess most of them were hiding somewhere. There were also seagulls and ducks in the background, as well as cormorants in the far back.
You can see some more birds from the lake in the following posts:

Your swan lake is so charming!!! Like birds very much!!!
Thank you so much, Anastasia! I love them too, I wish they were a little bit closer. 🙂
I am scared of geese, but I used to keep ducks as pets. I don’t like chickens except to eat, but I love hummingbirds.
Hummingbirds must be a wonderful sight! I am scared of geese too, I remember when I was little and I visited my grandparents, geese were always ready to attack.
I have been attacked by roosters, too, as a child, as it was my job to go into the hen house and collect the eggs.
We have just Black Swans and often see Cygnets in spring. 2 main places are by Puketutu Island and Western Springs but there are other places. I have also seen them on Lake Pupuke on the North Shore. Off course I’m only speaking of Auckland city in NZ.
It’s great that there are places near you where you can enjoy seeing them! 🙂
Even I saw that many swans in a very beautiful sight as a blessing!
It’s truly a blessing, well said!
I have not seen so many swans p at the pile
It’s a rare sight indeed, I was lucky to see them a few times this summer.
Wooow …. I also have not seen so many swans in one place
