I am no expert it looks healthy enough.I first saw it a couple of weeks back but it was even farther away then and was very busy pruning itself.A very nice gentleman lent me his bins so I could see it.I saw a couple of birders there and asked what they were so intent with and he kindly told me and passed the bins over.Poor thing looks so lonely on its own.First time I have ever seen one.We only ever get the mute swans here
