I didn't even know these existed.... As normally I don't pay much attention to black swans, I probably wouldn't even realize it was a hybrid.
The phot is also on this website, by the way

There is an observation in "our" database as well. Since they are very closely related it is not surprising that they hybridise (heck, there are even hybrids between mute swan and domestic geese recorded!), but this is the first photo that I see.
edit: I just noted that the observation on "our database" is the same!
Er zijn inmiddels nog wat foto´s door Rick toegevoegd.
Great, thanks !
And Thanks to Rick for sharing these photos!
I'm glad I can help... :lol:
