This afternoon, I was walking Lakeshore State Park (LSP) enjoying a little
quite time. With camera in hand, a gnetleman stopped and asked if I'd seen
anything interesting. He remarked that a Tundra Swan was spotted at LSP
earlier in the day.
Later, as I was walking north back toward the bridge, I could see an
obviously larger bird in flight up near Veteran's Park. I was able to
capture two shots with the bird in front of a darker background. Here's one
of them:

While the details are too difficult to make out, I'm surmising that this is
hte Thundra Swan spotted earlier in the day. I appreciate the timely
posting from Tim and Steve, and the kind gentleman I met in the park.
I drove up along the lakeshore trying to spot the bird again. Not luck. I
did enjoy the sizable waves crashing against the ice built up along the
lakeshore.
