Hatters Park's most familiar resident

Above, Psycho the Swan makes himself very tall and wide in the pond at Hatters Park, no doubt trying to convince the Canada goose on the left that he'd be better off finding somewhere else to live. Below, Psycho takes more direct action.


Psycho is a mute swan. Mute swans can weigh 18-35 pounds. Male swans are called cobs, females, pens, and baby swans are called cygnets. I always look forward to seeing Psycho and his family every spring.
