Mute Swan - juvenile released back to Bluffers Park

Many days after work I go to Bluffers Park to watch the ducks and swans.  Mira a young mute swan was found by a group of swan watchers.  She was a very sick young swan.  Toronto Wildlife Centre was called and took Mira into the centre.  She was suffering from lead poising.  She had ingested a sinker and it was in her belly. After surgery and many many months of rehab the swan was finally ready to be taken back to her home.  Here she is on her release back into the wild.  TWC and the Volunteer Swan watchers have saved many Trumpeter and Mute Swans.  thank you.
