Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ A touch of red on the beak of a black swan by the lake at Safety Beach Golf Club, Mornington Peninsula.
The bird in the top right corner of the photo is a cygnet - fluffy grey feathers that become black.

He, or is it a she, is beautiful. I've never seen even a photo of a black swan.
Black swan with a red beak! That's a first for me.
Elegance itself! The splash of color is perfect.
I have never seen a black swan. The two of them look like they are courting! What a rare photo!
It looks cute...happy RT!
Mine is here
Like the others, no black swans around these parts, or maybe I just haven't looked close enough. Great catch. The beak looks painted on.
Peace.
I have never seen a black swan before. I did not even know there was such a thing. It is so dramatic with the red beak.
What a beautiful and different kind of swan that we have in Sweden (we only have white)! I liked it! :)
What a swan - I've never seen one like that. Reminds me of Odile from Swan Lake - though no way this pretty thing could be evil.
I have never seen a black swan before, he is gorgeous!!
My Ruby Tuesday
he's beautiful!!
