Hi Susan:

Imagine our surprise when we found out that Swany is a Whooper Swan. This is the most social and noisiest bird from Euro-Asia. How old is she? If she is just now turning 3 years of age, this might explain why she is just now laying eggs and beginning the nesting process. She looks like a very young bird. The Regal Swan
