Swan Watch by Budd Schulberg - 1975

London: Robson Books, 1975. 149 pages of wonderful photographs and text. With poetry and legend, the author traces the relationship between these noble birds and humans.He tells of how he and his wife set about befriending Loh and Grin (named in honour of Wagner's Swan Knight), and even learned how to feed them by hand. Spring brought mating season, and it was then that he became involved in the drama of the bird's lives. Here is the story of two such springs - the first idyllic, the second tragic- and the seasons that surrounded them. A beautiful book of Loh and Grin and their cygnets. -- Bird Club sticker to ffep.
