so we went to the park today......we were walking and we turned around and all of a sudden that humongous thing appeared!

it doesn't look big in this pic, but in real life....it was scary

lol she/he kept following us and my friend started to run lmao!

maybe she/he was hungry and was following us?

so what is it (what breed) im not an expert in ducks, swans, or geese so idk what is that bird. When I went closer to take her/him some pics she/he made this weird screetching noise....was that a warning? Was she/he telling me to leave!?

here is when she/he was about to make the weird noise...

and this is when she/he was following us!

That's called a Mute Swan

Pretty bird!

well thanks everyone, now I know its not a chicken but it is a swan!

well this was my reaction when I first saw it.....

....... "don't eat me!

please!" and I think im not going to raise swans since they kinda scare me a bit

i would love to have a couple of swans. last i checked they run about 800 bucks...maybe i can work on a hatch. what a great way to start out hatching eggs. i want a black one and a white one.

It's a swan. If you think a mad goose is scary, don't upset a swan LOL!

yep thats a swan! i was chased by a swan when i was little

crazy bird was about the size of me! when i got chased by two mad geese a couple years back, man they were nothing compared to the swan! we had to run to the car and it continued to attack the car! scary!! and i was like 5. bad experiences. sure is pretty though!!
