A water fountain frames this swan as it swims majestically towards us (probably hoping to steal our bird seed.... or our hand *smile*).

We are uncertain of the number of swans at Bowring Park; however, we counted seven adults frolicking in the water. Although these swans are beautiful to view, they are very aggressive, especially with young children. If you are feeding the swans, ducks and pigeons located in the park, make sure you toss the seed a fair distance away; if not, the swans are not opposed to walking right up to you and snatching your bag of seeds. Of course, they don't particularly care if they happen to get your hand at the same time.
