Scooter is still paddling about

The swan family is generally dispersed these days. I've seen four of them together at one time a couple of times, but ususally they are fewer. Scooter seems to be largely on his own now. His foot has deteriorated until it's just a few little stubs - it seems to have worn away. Here he was happily preening, balanced on a log beneath the surface. He was even having a snooze balanced on one leg a little later. I'm wondering if he will ever try to fly. Possibly not.
