Young swan (6)

I believe the answer is:

cygnet

'young swan' is the definition.
(a cygnet is a young swan)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for cygnet that I've seen before include "Little swan" , "Young swan" , "that's no ugly duckling" , "one seen swimming near pen" , "Immature swan" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald, The Mirror, The Irish Times, the Penny Press, The Independent, The Sunday Times, The Guardian, The Telegraph and The Times.
