[kat92047@xxxxxxx]

I've enjoyed observing the Trumpeter Swan in Bristol twice now. Each time the 
bird has foraged some in a field offering great views.

I'm asking a question. Do any of the re-introduction programs for the Trumpeter 
Swan include supplemental feeding? I am NOT advocating taking feed out to this 
bird. I am just curious. It's a very big bird, so is it finding all it needs to 
eat at its present location? I am certain there are people on this list who can 
address this question better than I can. 

Thanks,
Bryan Stevens,
Hampton, TN
