It is a familiar bird in northern Europe and  across Asia to the far East, and is particularly noticeable when  migrating between breeding and wintering grounds in large, noisy flocks.  This migratory behaviour makes it a powerful symbol of seasonal change,  and this, together with the bird's beautiful appearance, make it a  popular subject of folklore and legend. For much of its range the  Whooper Swan is the archetypal wild swan', and its voice and appearance  is deeply evocative of time and place.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book looks at all  aspects of the life and times of this enchanting bird. The book includes  chapters on taxonomy, population, range and distribution, diet,  breeding biology, behaviour, migratory behaviour and longevity, as well  as taking a look at the swan's associations with our own species in  history and\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51359442862423,"sku":"9781472982629","price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781472982629.jpg?v=1754124663","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-whooper-swan-9781472982629","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
