Swans eat leaves, seeds, roots corn, shrimp, grain and vegetables that have been harvested by farmers. Swans get the leaves, the shrimp, and the roots from the water. They get the grain, the seeds, the corn, and the vegetables on the ground. Swans also eat bugs like snails and beetles.
Many swans make very loud noises when they are flying. Though mute swans, are nearly always silent and rarely make any noise when flying. All swans also make loud hissing or grunting noises when they are angry. I would not like to get near them when they are angry. A male swan is called a cob. A female swan is called a pen. A baby swan is called a cygnet. Though I call them chicks. Swans begin breeding between the ages of 3-4. A swan will mate for life. Swan eggs take between 35 and 42 days to hatch. I like swans.
