Paul Osborn asked if seeing Black Swans in a open paddock away from water is
unusual and Chris Baxter commented that they do this in their 100s on
Kangaroo Island.
Sounds like although they may be a different colour (Black Swan theory and
all that), they forage in the same way as their northern hemisphere cousins.
I recall seeing several fields full of a mixed bag of Mute, Bewicks &
Whooper Swans in the area around Welney in the Cambridgeshire fens just over
3 years ago.
