Description This is the last photo I'll ever take of Bryn. It is with a heavy heart, I have to announce that Bryn died on Wednesday 12th., in the evening after being taken ill in the afternoon. I hope to find out in due course what he died of.
I shall be putting a photographic journal together on the time I knew him, and his partner, Wynn. Wynn is left sitting on 6 eggs, and when they hatch she'll have a very hard time protecting them from predation, as she doesn't have eyes in the back of her head.

RIP BRYN

Bryn, the Cob, having time to himself as his partner, Wynn, the Pen, now has laid a number of eggs, and is on her nest
You can watch the nest as SwanCam is now upΒ bishopspalace.org.uk/ scroll down the home page to find it. As usual the office staff are not that good in keeping a check on what's happening and they forget to keep the camera clear of plants.

Sad to hear this news Will - especially as Wynn will have to undertake all "parental duties" alone not

Sadly, I can't see Wynn seeing all 6, if they all hatch out, to fledging.

We'll have to wait and see, as the office hasn't been keeping an eye on the number of eggs laid.
