The City of Kitchener is offering a prize for the name of Otis the swan’s new mate.

Otis, a bachelor swan since he lost his mate in 2012, has found a new female companion.

According to the EngageWR, the region’s onling engagement site, Otis met his mate while in Stratford for the winter.

On April 5, the pair returned to Victoria Park as a couple.

City officials say she's around three or four years old, but they're not exactly sure of her age. The pair were accompanied by a third swan, a trumpeter, but are unsure where it came from.

The city is looking to the public to come up with a name for Otis' new partner, with a four-pack of swim passes to give away as a prize.

Voting will open for names on April 26, with the most popular name to be announced on April 29.
