Do swans swim in the sea?

[CivicMan]

I've never thought swans paddle around in the sea, salt water and all that, but there was one this morning off Shoreham. Do they normally do this?

[350GT]

Seemingly then yes, they do!

Its a submarine disguised as a swan. That's the periscope.

as everyone checks their files for flying things

[Dogwatch]

They prefer drinking fresh water though. Understandable I suppose.

... the ones down by Hove Lagoon had a thing a few years back of drowning ducklings. It made for an 'entertaining' morning listening to parents trying to explain that to their toddlers.

I lived on Shoreham Beach for 16 years on the harbour side, and frequently saw swans on the river. I still see them now whenI visit my folks who still live there.

Whereabouts did you see the one in the pic?

I'd love to see a turf/water war between some swans and seaguls.

Right in front of the power station, by Carats cafe. (Recommended for big breakfasts!!)
