Bernie and others,
Your photo definitely looks Mute to me. The swan I saw that I called Tundra
looked like it had a solid dark bill, but it was back-lit in the bright sun
with the reflecting water so it's possible I missed the pink/orange.
Of course it's also possible we saw different birds but not as likely.

I also saw a swan in Milwaukee Harbor early yesterday afternoon (behind the art
museum). At the time I thought Mute Swan, even though the bill seemed more
pinkish than orange.
I'd appreciate it if someone could confirm my ID.
Here's a photo as it was taken by my camera: http://bit.ly/gCuTAb
Here's a cropped version of the above photo: http://bit.ly/g3nuNG
And here's a shot of the swan sleeping on the ice: http://bit.ly/fkKCi4
