This bronze statue displaying two swans flying away is also available as a bronze statue of two geese taking off. Both bronze statues are mounted on a combination of extensive decorated bronze and polished, black marble base. Geese and swans belong to the same family of birds, called Anatidae. They are migratory birds when not domesticated and fly thousand of miles to spend the winter in a warmer climate and move North to breed. Both geese and swans usually mate for life. Wings wide spread those two swans are taking off to find the sunshine. This is a wonderful statue for any location and is the right gift for any event.
