To identify male from female somatic swans, observe their physical characteristics: males, known as cobs, typically have a larger and more robust body, a thicker neck, and a more pronounced knob on their bill compared to females, or pens. Additionally, during the breeding season, males may display more aggressive behavior and engage in courtship displays. Vocalizations can also differ, with males often producing deeper sounds. Lastly, observing their mating behaviors can provide clues, as males are usually more dominant during courtship.
