A swan is a big, beautiful bird that lives near water. Swans are like the queens and kings of the bird world because they look so elegant and graceful. They have long necks that can bend in lots of cool shapes, and they have big, strong wings that help them fly and swim.

Swans love to live near lakes, rivers, and ponds. They need water to swim and find food. Some swans live in the wild, like in forests or wetlands. But you can also see them in parks and gardens where there's water. They feel safe and happy in places with lots of plants and trees around.

Swans are really easy to spot because they are so big and white! Most swans have white feathers all over their bodies, but some baby swans (called cygnets) are gray at first. They also have a big, strong beak that is usually orange or black. And guess what? Swans have webbed feet, just like ducks! These feet help them paddle through the water really fast.

Swans are not picky eaters. They like to eat plants that grow in the water, like algae and underwater grasses. They also eat seeds and insects. Sometimes, they even eat small fish! Swans use their long necks to dip their heads underwater and grab yummy snacks. They are really good at finding food!

They use their webbed feet to paddle through the water. When they want to go fast, they move their feet really quickly, like they're running underwater.

Swans are also great flyers! They flap their big wings to lift off the ground and soar into the sky. When they fly, their wings make a whooshing sound. Swans can fly really far to find new places to live or to migrate to warmer places in winter. In today's drawing tutorial, let's learn how to draw a swan resting on the water!
