There were three Swans feeding in the Duck River this
afternoon. These birds were large, all white and had all
black bills. My closest views were about 400 yards and
that's not close enough for me to make a definite call. I
hope someone with keener vision than me can check on
these birds.

On a different note, waterfowl numbers here are staggering.
At pool #1, the pumphouse pool, there was a massive raft of
at least 5000 birds.
