Everyone,
Just to clarify about the Trumpeter Swans seen at Airlie yesterday. The
collared bird is 0A4 which is part of the Ohio reintroduction project
and was seen last winter several times at Airlie. I need to do a little
research on this bird and see if I can find out where it spent the
summer. The bird that was with 0A4 was an adult Trumpeter which might
be a wild bird but there is really no way to know that. It did not have
a neck collar but we didn't see the legs so it could very well have had
a tarsus band.
