Mute Swan on the River
Mute Swan (Cygnus olor) North America’s largest waterfowl — easily mistaken for an enormous goose — identified by its all-white plumage, long S-curved neck, and the orange bill with a distinctive black knob at the base. Mute Swans are year-round residents along the Hudson River and throughout NYC waterways, introduced from Europe in the 19th century and now firmly established. Wikipedia | iNaturalist | eBird
