[Tweeters] Swan ID

[Martha Jordan via Tweeters]

After reviewing all the info on swan sightings and going out to the area, I
believe that what was seen is dark juvenile Trumpeter Swans.  Stepping out
on a bit of a limb: I would be deeply concerned to see free flying black or
mute swans here in WA or anywhere else where they are not native. Our
native species are important, the last thing we need is more exotics of any
kind of any species in the wild which likely ends up creating problems with
our environment and our native species. Removing said exotics from the wild
and back into captivity is best.
