These cygnets hatched on the 1st May.  They were photographed by John Chilton at Manor Park, West Malling, Kent with a Canon 400D with a Sigma 150-500mm lens.  John said there were six chicks in the brood.  The other two, which hatched earlier than these four, were swimming on the lake with the parents when he took this shot.
