Whilst I agree with the technicalities of the legality, and propriety ownership of swans by the crown in the Uk. I do disagree with the previous poster on how palatable swan is.
It is extremely fishy, oily meat, and, whilst pre-victorian era UK gentry considered it a delicacy, by the time Victoria came to the throne, it had fallen out of favour. So, whilst Cygnets are owned by the Crown (note, CROWN, not Queen Elizabeth herself. (Subtle, but important)) and to eat them is, technically, treason in the UK, they do not taste very nice to a modern palette.

No, not all black swans belong to the Queen. In the UK, the crown technically owns all unmarked mute swans on open waters, but black swans are not included in this tradition.

Why are rosalind and celia called Juno swans in as you like it?
Juno Swans: In Greek and Roman mythology, swans drew the chariot of Venus, goddess of love. In this mythology swans were not associated with Juno whose scared birds was the peacock.

Who eats a swans?
It is possible to eat swan, and it is supposed to be very tasty, but it is illegal. All the wild mute swans in the UK are the property of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, and are protected. Other swans are protected by law too. Therefore, although they make a delicious meal, swans are protected by law and it would be very much against the law to eat one. yes if you want to... but it's illegal.
