    Question? Is this swan a Bewick's or Whooper??

    From what I've read,the beak colours are very similar on both.

        The beak of the bewick's got a concave profile the whooper a straight profile. The yellow on the Whooper comes to a point on the beak, unlike the Bewick's which can extend to the tip
