I'll admit to being UK-centric in so far as around here black swans are a rarity to the extent that someone seeing my picture would be likely to comment on the fact that they're black rather than just swans!(unlike Australia).

There was a pub called the Black swan on Snig Hill in Sheffield in the sixties and seventies. Joe Cocker, The Clash, Sex Pistols and a bunch of others played there. We called it the Mucky Duck. Don't know if it's still there.

Something wildly different from me... a White pedestrian suspension bridge in Inverness, sunny day, five stops under exposed and a wee clean up in PP.

So to fit in with this theme I inverted the image.
