OK....I exaggerated. There are only 5 swans a swimming, but we saw two others in a field.
I believe they are Tundra Swans.....plus a few Canada Geese and Ring-billed Gulls.
The one in front has a neck band.
Can see the band better here.
These are all on a small man-made lake with beach at the Maumee Bay resort.
We were told at the nature center that if we drove along the road we would see fields with 100's of Tundra Swans in them. However, they must have all been off to the lake when we drove by and we didn't have enough time to go back later. There were only these two in one flooded field with a few gulls.

Five Swans will do. Too bad all the others had left before you for there.

Wonderful pictures of the Swans! You find the MOST birds!!!!!
Merry Christmas!
You sure got some nice pics...
I really like the shot of the spooked ducks a couple of posts back. Looks like you've had some good bird time lately.
I forgive you for exaggerating since the swans are so beautiful. These are neat photos.
I was lucky to see a few this Fall, and always consider it a real treat. Mostly I just hear them whistling far above nearly out of sight.
Good pictures Mary.

What a lovely swansong for Christmas! These were quite a find, and I love that you got these shots of them!
