Waterbird that mates for life (4)

I believe the answer is:

swan

(Other definitions for swan that I've seen before include "Large water bird" , "... Australian river" , "Large, long-necked bird" , "Shakespeare is called The .... of Avon" , "possibly mute" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
