As dusk falls over the urban waterscape, a mute swan holds its quiet vigil. Its long, sinuous neck forms a graceful arc—poised, watchful, deliberate. Though surrounded by the noise and movement of city life, this elegant bird remains undisturbed, a symbol of serenity and resilience. For centuries, swans like this one have graced Europe’s rivers, gliding silently through the currents—regal, untouchable, and ever alert.
