Truce!!??!!

This morning while driving down the road - Bob spotted the swan standing in the field.  He backed the truck up, got out, crossed the creek and got between the swan and the pond where it has been living for the past 7 months.
I drove home, grabbed my camera and waited by the window. 


Soon I saw them coming....Bob steering Nice Swan to our pond.


I went outside to see what Nasty Swan would do.....I could tell the second he saw them coming! 
He was all pumped up - in his fighting mode...


But today he was much calmer -- he started swimming toward the other swan, 
not charging toward him like the 2 previous times Nice Swan has tried to come home.




And took a little bit of a round about route...


While Nasty Swan did do a little hissing at this point...it was nothing so aggressive that Nice Swan had to run.


Soon it looked as though they were again buddies, at least until those hormones start raging again!!
 We are so glad to have our swan home --- and we are hoping this truce lasts :)
