Mute Swan

Mute Swan (eng.)
Knopsvane (da.)
Cygnus olor (sc.)

Extremely common in south Europa, this species of Swan is rarely a “real migrant”, there.
More often, it lives in parks or protected areas, of course not in cage, but however more close to a furniture than a wild bird….
For this very reason I’ve chosen only photos from Danmark, where most of them are migrant, surely more than in Italy (where only one chosen photo come from).
But…
But it doesn’t mean they are more clever than elsewhere, if there’s who nesting on a dock…
