From ABCNews.go.com:
"Each spring when they return to the Public Garden the Mayor leads a grand parade and hundreds of kids arrived dressed as swans and ducks. They even nicknamed one swan duo that each never leaves the other's side 'Romeo and Juliet.'

"Only, it turns out neither swan is Romeo — they are both female.

"'This happy same-sex couple exhibits all the behaviors of two heterosexual swans that have mated for life,' said Dr. Frank Beall, general curator Zoo New England, where the swans live in the fall and winter."
