Whooper Swan Cygnus cygnus

Whooper Swan by Jill Pakenham

Though a rare breeder in the north it is the winter when we are most likely to find the Whooper Swan on farmland near to wetlands.

Note that the 2007-11 maps (below left) reflect only records submitted so far online . We will update these with records from paper forms at the end of each fieldwork season. Check back soon to see how the picture develops. And why not take part and help fill the gaps.
