After asking around I understand they have been coming here to spend their winters for several years now. To me they seem incongruous with the snow falling around them.
When I think of swans I always think of ones that live in Disneyland. It sparks my imagination to think I could be sharing swans with Mickey Mouse.
To answer mom's question I posted the picture the women making their dash over the ice to the waters edge. It looks like they are cheating the cold by wearing tights, but don't be fooled those are fishnets and I can't imagine they provide much in the way of insulation. I did not post the picture with the last batch because I was not happy with the lighting in it. I could have brightened it up a bit for you...but frankly I am kind of lazy today.
I have had a bit of a nasty head cold/sinus infection since the day after Christmas and I every time I think I have recovered I get bogged down with some body fatigue. Monday we return to our regular routines so I hope to feel better by then.

Love the swan photos. I hope that you feel better soon.
Drink plenty of fluids, get some rest, and keep warm.
Disneyland birds are the smartest birds in the world, in my opinion!
I hope you feel better too, sick just plain suck!
