I was driving across the bridge and spotted these Swans the other day..

Was really surprised to see them all bunched up and bobbing for food. Must have made a snack break on their way to Anchorage and then down south.

Swans are so Beautiful! They Mate for Life, usually around 2 years old and then wait to breed for at least a year.

Feathers of immature swans are an ash gray color, and some gray feathers remain evident on the heads and necks of swans that are 1 and 2 years old.

Alaska's swans begin flying south in late September or October, depending on weather. They migrate as family units or in small flocks comprised of several families.
