Young Mute Swan Cygnet - cygus olor

Young cygnets come in two colour morphs, the grey which are called 'Royal' will start of with a grey down and will grow in grey-brown and white feathers giving these swans a mottled look. The white called 'Polish' will have a white down and white feathers. The adults from the white morph (Polish) may have grey or pink legs and feet instead of the usual black.
