Seward, Alaska
What a tremendous relief to
find all five TRUMPETER SWANS at the north end of the Lagoon this noon! The
three cygnets fed near each other and one adult in the shade away from the boardwalk.
The other adult fed in the sunshine near the boardwalk, but paddled over to
join them after a while.
I wish I could have watched
the reunion when each parent with one cygnet found one another, and the lone
cygnet at Preacher Pond was discovered and reunited. I can imagine the
triumphant trumpeting, head bobbing, and powerful wings beating the air.
Stories to share! They are such a strong, beautiful family!
I did not find them around 4
pm, but hope that they are all together on this cold, blustery night.
Happy Birding!
