I saw three swans come paddling in
on boxing day, on boxing day;
I saw three swans come paddling in
on boxing day in the morning.

and what was the three swans after
on boxing day, on boxing day
and what was in those swans after on
on boxing day in the morning

Those three swans were after some
stale bread that I had in my pocket on
boxing day in the morning yes those three
swans just wanted the stale bread that I had
in my pocket on boxing day in the morning

Never ugly ducklings - they're such beautiful birds. A lovely photo Mick. A belated happy Christmas to all on PAD. Often wished I could see the faces of people who post, but it's lovely to feel a part of PAD even though I no longer live in Wigan.

I agree Pat there's nothing ugly about those birds. Ok they may not be prima ballerinas just yet but give them a few weeks and they will be the starring roles in Swan Lake.

I have always loved the song 'The ugly duckling' sung by Danny Kaye..it says it all...they really are beautiful birds.

Wasn't there a song once called the three ugly ducklings, it was about 3 baby swans who still had tatty feathers.
