Because Bayinbrook freezes every winter, some of the strong swans fly south for the winter, and the swan parents with their annual young swans cannot fly to the far south, passing through here, due to the hospitality of the people on the Peacock River, coupled with the warming of the climate, so the swan family stayed.
