Where can I buy a pair of swans from?

[Luke.]

Morning all.

Moved out of London into the country and as luck would have we're right on lovely body of water. Wouldn't go as far as a lake, but it's not a bad patch.

Now the wife's always saying I don't spend any time on the old romantic gestures. So thought how about a pair of nice swans.

Any thoughts on how to procure them?

Cheers.

You think you can force them to stay on your little patch of water ?

I was thinking that. Shirley if it was a piece of water that swans like then it would already have some on it, if you wanted them or not. Didn't think you could make a swan stay somewhere it had not chosen. Short of clipping it's wings I guess.

However as there is a link to someone offering swans ducks and other fowl I guess you may be able to....

A perfect way to announce to the neighbours that a townie is in their midst!

Ready made, pre-packaged wildfowl,

Hmmm. I think I might need a pair of Ne Ne Geese.

As they are protected I would assume the answer is no!

wild swans are presumably protected, but if you own them...?

Would these parrots happen to be resting?
