This afternoon.
Bushy Park, Terenure, Dublin 6.
Warning signs to canines and their owners from Dublin City Council after a swan attacked and killed a dog at the park’s duck pond on Saturday of last week.
The Cocker Spaniel was swimming near a group of swans and cygnets when one of the adult swans completely freaked out and used its wings to beat the dog to death.
The swan was described as white-feathered, beautiful with an elegant neck and deceptively poetic wingspan.
The slaying may have been a revenge after a dog mauled a swan to death in Skerries, north county Dublin last year.

Please remember to bring your brain while walking your dog.
Wild animal uses instinct to do wild thing.
We must contact the press!!

i think I could take a swan in a fight
On land though, not on water
Everybody’s got a plan until they get a wing in the face.

Like a swan in heat
Swans are like drag queens- enough said.
I’ve never once woken up hungover in a swan’s bed…

Total silly season non story
Have you seen Al Bin Man, Paul?

More of a story than the Cork hit and run

Yes. Poor dog.
Stupid dog owner.
Well done swan.

Ragin to hear of the death of @tomdeswan in Skerries by a dog. By the wings of Cygnus, you will be avenged brother.
Good grief. Karma with a vengeance.
Swans are very protective over their nests, home and young. Idiot dog. Probably pampered all its life.
