Cygnets Piggyback on Mother Swans Back. Pictures: www.daviddilling.com/fotogalle... I read that just born swanlings, as I like to call them, like to ride on the back of their mother. Swanlings are officially called cygnets and I was lucky enough to capture the moment on film in HD and with pictures. The father swan wanted nothing to do with this horse-play!
