Swan<br />

Lakes<br />

We have four lakes<br />

in the park and<br />

usually, there is<br />

an adult pair on<br />

three of them – one<br />

greedy pair takes two<br />

lakes as their own and often<br />

you will see a territorial of great drama<br />

when another pair attempts to intrude.<br />

Already this year, we have been able to rescue<br />

a juvenile from the Shoulder of Mutton Pond<br />

who was driven off by an adult pair.<br />

Through our growing network, we are able to<br />

tell each other when we have concerns about<br />

a swan’s health or safety, and we thank the<br />

many people of Wanstead who share a love<br />

for these birds for their support in looking<br />

after our beloved swans.<br />

Sanctuary, visit wnstd.com/swans. To<br />

report any concerns about the health and<br />

safety of a local swan, call 01932 240 790<br />
