Talking of swans, they've changed their habits during the last few years so it seems to me. There are always some on the sea, along the front or at St Michael's Mount. Maybe it's because they ceased to get food (was it a baker's bread left-overs) at Drift.
Bread is the worst thing to give them, in any case; it swells and fills their stomachs, so they have no room for the food they really need, which they are now finding in the sea shore, from the increased growth of seaweed, which is breaking up; they also like to dabble for weed from the Lariggan Brook, as it flows from the outfall.
