For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.find a local wildfowl sanctuary, there are several all over the UK. The one we visit is at Slimbridge, they have set feeding times for the migrating swans. Contact the nearest one to you and enquire if they do the same. You should be able to get several good pictures hopefully with multiple swans in :o)
NOW! ;-) Last year they arrived ealier than usual, a supposed sign of a bad winter to follow. Sure enough, it was bad. This year, despite all the gloomy predictions about another bad winter, they've arrived later than usual, a supposed sign of a mild winter to come. We'll just have to wait and see who's right - the swans or the doom-merchants.
