Lake Co, Tn. 
Reelfoot Lake
Upper Blue Basin
Sat. morning (01-10-09) I was notified that there were three swans on the lake 
out behind the Sportsman's Resort.  The birds were half way across the lake.  I 
scoped them and was able to get a fairly decent look but would of liked to have 
been closer.  The birds were white except for their necks that had a grayish 
wash, the bills of all three birds were pinkish with a black tip.  Legs black, 
the face was black up to the eyes.  After some reviewing I decided they had to 
be immature Tundra's.
