Mute Swan/Weld

[The "Nunn Guy"]

Hi all

Saw Dick Maxwell eBird report on swans he saw in NW Greeley on Saturday.

Sunday, I had three "wild" :-) Mute Swan along F Street west of 35th Avenue yesterday. Traveling west on F Street from 35th Ave, drive by Osprey nest and you'll see small parking area on south just past the housing area. First gravel pit is there on north--one Mute Swan there. Go farther west and you'll see second and third ponds on north. The Mute Swan pair was in second pond yesterday. Generally, I see the pair in the third pond. The single swan I have seen in various ponds around Greeley-including the small gravel pit on north side (of road) of Linn Grove Cemetery (where the two domestic Mute Swans live (clipped wings) in small pond).

Thanks Gary Lefko, Nunn
