Paintings & Drawings In Water ColoursA Water Colour Of The Mute Swan, Cygnus olor.This limited edition water colour of the Mute Swan, Cygnus olor, depicts the partly domesticated swan. The Mute Swan is a familiar sight on British ponds, canals, lakes and rivers. It has a deep orange bill, with a black knob, unlike the wild swans. The male helps to incubate the eggs, and the young can be seen to be carried on the backs of the adults when leaving the nest.
