Swan rescue drama

We came across a swan in distress in the Leg of Mutton reservoir in Barnes on our walk this morning - we called the swan sanctuary emergency line and they sent an expert to rescue it and return it to its flock - here are the photos and video of the expert catching the swan.
It is likely that the swan was an intruder and was chased into the undergrowth by the resident swans who live on the reservoir.
Thank you to the swan sanctuary for your help on Xmas day
