Summary[edit]

Description

Cygnus olor

English: Mute Swan (Cygnus olor), juvenile. Photo taken near Vanhankaupunginlahti, Finland. The location is listed in Ramsar "List of Wetlands of International Importance". Although not evident from the picture, this image was taken on the day of first snow. Note the dark and somewhat curious colours of this adolscent bird, which will later turn bright white with orange beak.

Fotografia scattata nei pressi di Vanhankaupunginlahti (anche nota quale Vanhankaupunginselkä), località finlandese situata vicino Helsinki; Questo luogo è elencato nella Convenzione di Ramsar della "Lista delle zone umide di importanza internazionale". Sebbene non evidente dall'immagine, questa foto è stata presa nel giorno della prima neve (del 2007). Si noti lo scuro e in qualche modo curioso colore di questo esemplare giovanile, che in seguito diventerà bianco brillante e con il becco arancione.
