File:The Royal Swans Of Swanton Vermont.jpg
The swans, by kind permission of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, and in conjunction with the Norfolk Naturalist Trust of Hickling Broad, Norfolk, England and the office of the Clerk of the Smallburgh Rural District Council, which includes the Village of Swanton Abbot, were obtained and transported by Trans-Canada Air Lines.
The Swanton Chamber of Commerce, which plans the Summer Festival, hopes that the swans will serve as an example to all who pass of the international friendship which exists between, Canada, the United States, and the United Kingdom.
