    Escapees presumably as Australia is a long flight even for a big bird.

    There is a pair just like that in Limerick City. Can be seen most days on the river near Shannon Bridge.

    They are beautiful:) Are they any danger to the white swans like the grey squirrel to the red?

    From what I hear they are very agressive to other waterfowl which could cause problems if they started to multiply and spread to any great extent:confused:
