My wife and I have been watching a group of 8 Trumpeter Swans that are spending the winter on a nearby lake. At least a dozen different groups of Trumpeters have been spotted in OK this year. Maybe the reintroduced Central Flyway birds are finally learning to migrate.

Rather than post a bunch of pics here, I've posted some on a picasa link. You can view here. http://picasaweb.google.com/okierednek/RecentlyUpdated#

The first couple of shots show a metal leg band on one of the birds. These haven't been used in a long time.

Anyone else watching any wintering Trumpeters?
