Re: [cobirds] Swan #4 at Cottonwood Marsh

I had not gotten the chance yet to post about this, but I saw four swans there last night.  Three were Tundra Swans (2 adults and a 1st year), and the fourth I thought was a Trumpeter based on the complete lack of yellow in the lores and what seemed to be larger size (although they are hard to tell apart because of individual variability in the lores and I'm no expert when it comes to swans).  It is nice to have confirmation since I was rather uncertain.

Hi Everyone,

A fourth swan has just come in. It looks and sounds like a Trumpeter.
