Swan Pond Redux

I went out to the impoundments this morning to get a closer look at the Tundra Swans. We saw many different species of ducks, including teal, widgeon, black ducks, mallards, pintail, and canadian geese. This as well as the tundra swan, We were told by our host that the biologists that had visited earlier identified a few Mute swans, in addition to the tundra swans that are most prevalent. And he added that the Mute swan is appearing in North Carolina in ever increasing numbers of late. See the latest pictures here.

An interesting coincidence I had this morning by catching the jet in the background of the Tundra Swan flying overhead.
