This whooper swan has been at Broadmeadows since at least 11th October 2013 when I first spotted it, and that was after it had been reported by others. So 6 months now, give or take a day. I was very lucky the day I got this shot, the light was great and it was the only time I managed to get close to the bird. I waited a long time to get my first glimpse of a whooper swan, and then two trips to the west coast either side of Christmas and I saw them in nearly every lake and estuary I passed!
As of today this swan is still at Swords, a flock are often spotted flying over around this time so fingers crossed it'll spot its mates and be reunited with them soon.
