Swan family at Heywood Gardens, Ballinakill, Co. Laois
Irish wildlife photography : Nigel Borrington
I took this images on a visit to Heywood Gardens, County Laois, two years ago and then place some of the photographs into an exhibition held in Callan, Co. Kilkenny the same year.
Heywood Gardens are not vast, but they offer one of Ireland’s most private wildlife locations.

Thank you Anne, I had a smile on my face all the time I was with these little ones and their parents. Just one of the best times I have had with a Camera.
They are just the most wonderful characters to watch!!!
