Facts about Reception – Cygnets

Baby swans are called cygnets and stay with their mother for the first 6 months of life. All of the mute swans in England and Wales are owned by the Queen of England. Despite popular belief, swans can actually fly. They are among the largest flying birds out there and need about 30 meters to become airborne.
