Patience at the Water’s Edge

Black and white photograph of an adult swan swimming among reeds with three cygnets, two riding on its back and one beside it in the water.

A quiet Field Note from Kingston, where a managed stormwater pond becomes a neighbourhood habitat for swans, cygnets, and patient observation.

Foggy night in the staff parking lot at Providence Care Hospital in Kingston, Ontario, with streetlights glowing through mist and a single parked car.
