Swan goes to Shropshire school daily to stare at reflection

A swan has been spending all day staring at her own reflection in a school window.

Sally has gone to The Telford Park School in Shropshire every day for more than a year.

After contacting a local wildlife group, school staff were told the swan was most likely widowed.

Some people say the reflection could be reminding the swan of its mate.

But John Stewart, from Wychbold Swan Rescue in Worcestershire, believes it may assume its reflection is a rival bird encroaching on its territory.
