A pair of proud swans were spotted taking their new brood out for a swim along the Grand Western Canal at the weekend.
The conscientious parents have got their work cut out looking after a whopping 10 cygnets which recently hatched on the historic water way in Tiverton, Devon.
The fluffy parade was kept in line by their protective mother and father in a heartwarming scene caught on camera by a passerby.
The flock largely stayed close together, with the watchful adults keeping a close eye on the adorable youngsters as they glided along the water.
