BLACK-NECKED SWAN, LAKE EOLA PARK,ORLANDO,FLORIDA, 1/11/2019
The Black-necked Swan is native to South America. How the swan got to Lake Eola we weren't able to determine. There are over 50 swans in the lake, consisting of five species: Mute, Trumpeter, Black, Black-necked and Whooper. The swans have there wings clipped, so they can't fly away. Once a year they are corralled and checked by a veterinarian.
