Lake Graham and surrounding area Madison Co. Tuesday, 2010 Feb. 23 8:40-9:20am I drove to Lake Graham from Nashville and arrived after rush hour. Even though I brought a map, I had to ask for directions 3 times since not all the roads are marked. Fortunately, the immature trumpeter swan was there to meet me. Easily seen, it did not come in as close as it did for Mike Todd, but I certainly had nice looks at it. It did attempt to feed several times and like Mike I could not see any tags on it. Eventually a fisherman came and launched a boat from the ramp causing the swan to swim toward the west side of the lake south of the dam, but it was still easily visible. Heading back along Cotton Grove Rd. there was a fenced feeding area for horses where I spotted a lone Brewer's Blackbird.
