There’s a few of you repeating this ludicrous claim so you’re all obviously mistaking the Mute Swan (Cygnus Olor) & the Barnacle Goose (Branta leucopsis)

Let me ask you this. Have any of you saw a swan up a tree or on a roof? Anyone ever been shat on by a swan?

I think not.

The Barnacle goose looks nothing like a swan.

I thought with Aberdeen being so far north, it might have winter plumage. Whoever put that swan up the tree is just sick

I know about this one. Some cruel tw@t stuck one up a tree to try and vindicate their absurd conspiracy theory. Fake News.

As have struggled to come up with a combination of a sparrow and buffalo, they are now training Barnacled Geese, cunningly disguised as swans, to time releasing their sh!te ahead of our next visit to Ibrokes.



New tune required.

Instead of "If I had the wings of a sparrow", we should all sing: -

Send in the swans
Send in the Swans
Send in, Send in
Send in the Swans
(to the tune of we are the mods - Quadrophenia)

It'll confuse the sh!t out of them

^^^ That’s a goose

No, it's a pig

They look similar to the untrained eye. The way to tell for sure, is that Geese can fly & swans can’t
