    Mr Asbo the anti-social swan, Frightened rowers have made a desperate appeal to the Queen for the removal of an evil swan dubbed 'Mr Asbo', who has been repeatedly attacking river users.
    The vicious bird has returned with a vengeance to the normally peaceful River Cam in Cambridge following his reign of terror last year.
    The bad-tempered bird attacks any boat which gets too near and has already left dozens of rowers with cuts and bruises.
    Last year Cambridgeshire Rowing Association and Cam Conservators sent an email warning rowers to keep their distance from the fully-grown male.
    But this year the feathered fiend has moved further into the city and become even more aggressive, chasing after motor boats as well as canoes.
    The bird, who has even been known to capsize rowers, is believed to be protecting his partner and nearby nest.
    Now Bill Key, president of the Cambridgeshire Rowing Association, wants the Cam Conservators to remove the swan.

    Mr Asbo the anti-social swan prepares to attack a rower's oar, Frightened rowers have made a desperate appeal to the Queen for the removal of an evil swan dubbed 'Mr Asbo', who has been repeatedly attacking river users.
    The vicious bird has returned with a vengeance to the normally peaceful River Cam in Cambridge following his reign of terror last year.
    The bad-tempered bird attacks any boat which gets too near and has already left dozens of rowers with cuts and bruises.
    Last year Cambridgeshire Rowing Association and Cam Conservators sent an email warning rowers to keep their distance from the fully-grown male.
    But this year the feathered fiend has moved further into the city and become even more aggressive, chasing after motor boats as well as canoes.
    The bird, who has even been known to capsize rowers, is believed to be protecting his partner and nearby nest.
    Now Bill Key, president of the Cambridgeshire Rowing Association, wants the Cam Conservators to remove the swan.

    A swan nicknamed 'Mr Asbo' who has been causing havac on the River Cam by attacking people on the river
    Mr Asbo The Swan
    MR ASBO THE SWAN

    A vicious swan has been nicknamed Mr Asbo after capsizing boats and attacking rowers on a city river.

    Rowers are now being warned to stay away from the bad-tempered bird which has been snapping and hissing at rowers, who get too near.

    The fully-grown male even capsized one rower on the River Cam in Cambridge and attacked him with his beak while he was in the water.

    "We have got a problem with a swan which has developed a very bad temper and taken on an attitude," said Colin Sparkes, foreman of the Cam Conservators, which looks after the river.

    "Swans can be very territorial and aggressive and he obviously sees the rowers as a threat.

    "He is part of a nesting pair and is very protective of his nest.

    "Swans have very poor eye sight and lots of the boats are white so he is probably mistaking them for other swans."

    The feathered fiend has now been nicknamed Mr Asbo by scared rowers, who have been avoiding the area near Ditton Corner where he is nesting.

    Rower Alan Marron, who was attacked by the big bird, said: "The swan has become very dangerous.

    "It flew around Ditton Corner to attack me in my single, causing me to capsize.

    "The swan could not see me when it took off and I was moving away from Ditton and it landed on my rigger and attacked me with its beak.

    "I was in the middle of the river, away from any banks or reeds so I could not have been threatening any nest.

    "If the swan continues to be this aggressive, especially with more juniors on the river at the weekend, then there will be more cases like mine and there may be injuries."

    Another rower, who did not want to be named, added: "It's really vicious. I'm...

    "Swans can be very territorial and aggressive and he obviously sees the rowers as a threat.

    "He is part of a nesting pair and is very protective of his nest.

    "Swans have very poor eye sight and lots of the boats are white so he is probably mistaking them for other swans."

    The feathered fiend has now been nicknamed Mr Asbo by scared rowers, who have been avoiding the area near Ditton Corner where he is nesting.

    Rower Alan Marron, who was attacked by the big bird, said: "The swan has become very dangerous.

    "It flew around Ditton Corner to attack me in my single, causing me to capsize.

    "The swan could not see me when it took off and I was moving away from Ditton and it landed on my rigger and attacked me with its beak.

    "I was in the middle of the river, away from any banks or reeds so I could not have been threatening any nest.

    "If the swan continues to be this aggressive, especially with more juniors on the river at the weekend, then there will be more cases like mine and there may be injuries."

    Another rower, who did not want to be named, added: "It's really vicious. I'm too scared to go past it when I am alone."
