Bewick's swan (Cygnus columbianus bewickii), 2010-07-24

An older photo I didn't post before. This species in not in Burgers' Zoo's collection anymore. According to ZTL it was until 2016. This species was housed in the old bird area that was demolished for the construction of the new Mangrove ecodisplay dome.

      @Clem Thank you for you comment about the photo. According to Zootierliste Burgers' Zoo never kept Cygnus cygnus. I also remember that they had quite small swans, smaller than the whooper swans I've seen. So I am fairly it was actually a bewickii.

      I also realized I made a mistake in the title (probably forgot to change something I copied) - the year of this photo should be 2008, not 2010. The date under the information tab is correct. Unfortunately I cannot change the title anymore, so I'm sorry for this mistake.
