A pair of Dawlish's famed black swans have now nested and laid eggs on the small island in the Brook at Tuck's Plot.

The pictures show at least two eggs in the nest.

Dawlish Waterfowl said on social media that the Black Swan Cam, set up by Dawlish Beach Cams and the town council, has 'been streaming non-stop' since October 2020 in eager anticipation that the swans would nest in this location.
