I was intrigued by Wolf Bird's recent post in the shoutbox regarding the pair of Swans being back in the Boston Commons. So I thought I would do a little research on the subject since I did not know much about this since I am in a different area of the country, and so I'm sharing some of the info here so everyone can know more about them. It seems this is an annual event and one looked forward to as Spring has arrived each year, etc., if I am not mistaken. Also found some interesting information about the pair of Swans who are named Romeo and Juliet, even though they are both females. They are both beautiful creatures. Sounds like a very fun event.
