The Long Necked Contortionist

You’d be forgiven for thinking that this Mute Swan has the longest neck in the world however not everything is as it seems! The illusion was created when one male Swan attacked another for no apparent reason. The victim took evasive action by diving under the water but was quickly located and stood upon, its neck held tightly in the others beak and held down. When the victim resurfaced from its ducking it appeared as if its head belonged to the others body and instead of two Swans there was just one long necked contortionist.
