MAbbotsbury SwanneryM
The first of this year's cygnets have hatched at Abbotsbury Swannery in Dorset, England. I have never come across the word swannery before. What a great sound is has! Of course it is simply defined as a place for breeding swans, but for me there is something about the word swannery that suggests things like elegance, verve, stylishness and flair, etc., etc. However, I'm sure I will probably never actually use the wonderful word swannery in my normal course of routine.
