Swans, Lake County

Big thanks to Darren T. for finding Swans on Sterling Lake at the Van Patten Woods FP.  Swans were there in the late afternoon, counted 14 of them with 3 Tundras and the rest Trumpeters from what I could tell.  Can really see the size difference when they are next to each other.  There were also a couple Canvasbacks near them.  A couple videos can be seen here:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Cy_8xpcJts,  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVRoFNTB-T8.

There are now 17 Swans at Van Patten Woods FP.   I think 5 are Tundras, the rest Trumpeter Swans.
