Cygne tuberculé (Mute swan)

Mitchell Lake Audubon Center, Texas

There are three species of swans in North America.
The Trumpeter Swan (Cygnus buccinator) and
Tundra Swan (C. columbianus) are indigenous,
while the Mute Swan (Cygnus olor) is a Eurasian species
that has been introduced and now breeds in the wild in some areas.

All three are very large all-white birds.
The male swan is called the Cob.
He typically weighs more and looks larger than the female (the Pen).
Young-of- the-year swans are called Cygnets.
