Mute Swan (2023-10-28 #17)

            Mute Swan.

58 to 60 inches in length with a wingspan of just under 8 feet.  The adults are all white with an orange bill with a black knob at the base.  The young birds are the same but dingy gray-brown becoming whiter with age.  The Mute Swan holds its neck in a feaceful curve while native swans hold their necks straight up.

They inhabit ponds, rivers, coastal lagoons and bays.

They are not native to North America and were introducted from Europe into the United States.  They are most commonly found in southern New England through southeastern New York and into New Jersey and Maryland.  There is also a locally established population in Michigan.

Kensington Metropark, Livingston County, Michigan.
