Mute swan couple constructing the nest


Mute swan couple constructing the nest. The nest is buildt by both parent birds during about ten days. Mute swans nest on large mounds that they build with waterside vegetation in shallow water on islands in the middle or at the very edge of a lake. They are monogamous and often reuse the same nest each year, restoring or rebuilding it as needed. Höckerschwan-Paar im Frühling beim Nestbau.
