Black Swan,
This striking bird is Australia’s only native swan and is a symbol for the state of Western Australia. Until it’s discovery, all swans were thought to be white; in fact, it was an expression; a black swan (like a ‘white elephant’ or ‘blue moon’) referred to something impossibly fantastic.
