The website that shall not be named has reported that Rebecca the black swan at Animal Kingdom has passed away.

He and his mate had lived at Animal Kingdom since the park opened and they were originally a part of an Epcot exhibit. The female swan passed away a few months prior.

Not news per se, but kind of since it relates to more discounts starting to come out :)
Check inboxes and spam boxes, I just received a PIN....don't know the details (e.g. dates and resorts) yet since 20 minutes in orbit on the WDW web page, but it's for 20% off. (I have to leave soon so not sure I'll be able to see specifics before I go.)
