BOARDMAN BABIES

Logan’s Landing is a local hot spot for birding.  At the south end of Boardman Lake, the main residents are ducks, swans, and geese.  And this time of year, breeding, nesting, and caring for young ones occupy their time.  In the first series, a female mallard attends to her brood of eight chicks.  So adorable.  In the second, a mute swan sits on her nest and then she and her mate attend to their two young cygnets.  Five eggs were left behind unhatched, probably inviable.  Both young families attracted the attention of walkers and bikers traveling across the boardwalk bridge.
