WEYMOUTH, ENGLAND - MAY 11: Recently hatched cygnets walk beside the waters edge at Abbotsbury Swannery - the only publically accessible colony of nesting mute swans in the world - on May 11, 2012 near Weymouth, England. The arrival of the cygnets is traditionally seen as the start of summer and local traditions claim the Benedictine Monks who owned the Dorset swannery between 1000 AD and the 1540s believed the first cygnet signalled the season's first day. Abbotsbury Swannery's mute swans - up to 1,000 in total - are all free flying, and are not kept in cages. (Photo by Matt Cardy/Getty Images)

UPPER MARLBORO, MD - MAY 14: A curious goat hired to clear a dense, overgrown woods of invasive species and vegetation in Upper Marlboro, MD on May 14, 2012. Dubbed as 'Eco-Goats' by owner and forester Brian Knox, these voracious eaters are a natural solution to a natural problem. The goats eat almost every plant including poison ivy. The seeds of invasive species are digested and expelled and can't germinate. Knox puts up two layers of fencing, one a solar electric fence, and the goats are turned loose in a one acre area. Within 4-7 days, vegetation is literally licked clean. All goats have shelter and are monitored by a herder 24/7. The business started four years ago when Knox reconnected with friends Richard and Shannon Garden who owned the 50 goats. Since then the herd has grown to about 125.
