>> Thanksgiving WE started with a lift off of about 40 swans from Warner Lake

>> later in the WE we observed groups of 3, 4 and 6 trumpeter swans and still
>> later a group of 36 swans, several with neck bands and all that were
>> scopable looking the same. My questions are - Do we actually have enough
>> trumpeters to have a group of 36? Do trumpeters and tundras ever
>> intermingle?
>> Other WE highlights at the bird-feeders were tree sparrows, more RB
>> Nuthatches observed than since the 2001 tornado took most of the large
>> conifers; a new yard bird (pheasant); two ravens; plus the usual suspects.
>> I tried for the snowy owl at Crex but did not find it.
