This swan walked up Green Street two days ago. Apparently it was a female from last year’s brood and had been driven off Flower Pot Green by a breeding pair.

She took a liking to a patch of greenery on the corner of Stile Path.

If you happened to see her and have now noticed her absence, worry not as a man from the Swan Sanctuary came round within minutes and took her off to the Swan Sanctuary at Fordbridge Road.
