Unusual swan finds love

Crinkly has been making the journey from the Arctic tundra to Slimbridge Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust, Gloucestershire, for Christmas, since 2001.

Crinkly has become a favorite with staff and visitors, but until today, none of the females at the trust was prepared to mate with him. Now it appears that Crinkly is associating with another Slimbridge Bewick's swan called Taciturn.
