Sorry but that is a domestic goose. Check out images of white swans on google and you will see the black facial markings. But still a nice photo. The only white swans in Australia are in Western Australia . They were introduced some time in 1800 and have maintained themselves in small numbers. Posted 4 years ago, modified 4 years ago
