Cygnus atratus

Jessica, my 9 year old daughter, and I are working on a Science report. She is studying the Black Swan of Australia. The strangest thing I learned about it is that there are ZERO swans with black feathers north of the equator. The Black Swan of the Australian continent is the only completely black swan. I just found that strange. Oh yeah, they are herbivores, just like me.

OK. Now image a multicolored star traveling over my head as I say that.
