Swan Black (Cygnus atratus) adult in flight, a migrant – Guernsey
Full SizeNote the white stripe on trailing edge of the wings that is only just visible when the Swan is settled. The Swan is native of Australia introduced in Europe and living in the wild in Guernsey. Thus I have classified it as a migrant rather than vagrant.
