I’m filling in for our biodiversity blogger Christine Berry to bring you this week’s exciting developments from The National Archives’ pond. In Christine’s last post, she talked about the pair of adult swans nesting on the lower pond: this week, the eggs hatched! Staff here managed to take these pictures, though we’re being careful not to get too close.
