I didn't buy them or find them. A guy I work with had to take them because of the floods we had. The day after he got them out, the nest washed away, so he got them just in time.. Bad part, I have to give them back to him.. Booooo. I am keeping one of them tho for all the hassle and. Work. And they are a lot of work.. Very messy little critters...lol

I'm sure they are messy, but they are so adorable.

Thanks.. They really did good this year... The clematis I mean. I tried to take a picture last night with all the new babies... 5 swans, 4 chicks and 2 kittens all at once but I couldn't keep up with them. 4 baby geese should hatch this weekend. Mama goose is taking care of that tho. I love spring with all the new babies. I have a chicken sitting on two turkey eggs and one chicken sitting on two duck eggs.. They are both Banties so should be fun to watch them raise babies bigger than they are...lol

I don't get that either because they are so pretty. I need to take them out for their daily outdoor time, but I am down today with back issues..

Last night I was marveling how much water they were drinking... NOT.. They were laying in it and spilling it.. What a mess. They are on the porch in a kiddie pool... With hay in it. Started out with wood shavings with a sheet over it but thought I would try the hay... They love it but it hides the spilled water for too long. Then you have a mess. I really want a female... The lighter colored one has yellow legs where the others all have black legs.. It also has a shorter stockier neck. I don't even know for sure what breed of swans they are. Any ideas on how to tell?
