I looked it up and found that swans may briefly leave eggs in a covered nest to get food, but usually swans take turns sitting on the eggs.
One site did say that if predators disturb the nest they’ll abandon the nest. From your photo… it doesn’t look like a nest- more like scattered grass. The swan hiding is unusual…. Could she have been injured? Is there a park authority you could report this to check in case the swan needs help?
As I'm walking along the walk bridge across the river I looked down at one of the bridge culverts and there's a goose beside an egg that's not even in a nest... and said goose chased a second goose away...
I'm not sure why I like Canada goose as much as I do but oh well I do (And isn't that weird how we always tend to call them Canadian geese but it's actually Canada goose)?

Sometimes, a person who comes across as arrogant is really just insecure. They may try to hide their lack of confidence with bravado or a bold persona, but it comes off in the wrong way. Someone you have met recently may give the impression of arrogance, when in reality they would love to impress you, but they feel insecure about it.

Love to see this portrait of hanging somewhere in the White House ... maybe the break room.
Yes I am the thing that goes bump in the night!
