Swans are among the largest flying birds, with some species, such as the mute swan, reaching wingspans of up to 2.4 meters (8 feet) and weighing as much as 15 kilograms (33 pounds). These iconic waterfowl are vital to freshwater ecosystems, contributing to nutrient cycling and serving as bioindicators of water quality. Their presence is a testament to the health of wetland habitats, which support biodiversity and act as natural carbon sinks. Forevergreen is committed to safeguarding ecosystems w
