I think that everyone is well aware that these two are pets. I doubt they can
fly.

The Lagerman Mute swans are ornamental birds placed on that pond by humans.
They both have fairly obvious metal bands on their legs.

I just want to ask the same question as Ira Sanders re Mute swans -the mute’s
at Lagerman are constantly being reported to ebird and I have never seen them
anywhere else besides swimming placidly around on their farm pond-does anyone
think these are wild birds? Thanks Bill Fink. Longmont

The Broadmoor Hotel had a Black Swan for a few years long ago. Beautiful but
not wild either, unfortunately.

Question:
Since when have Mute Swans been counted anywhere in Colorado?

I saw the Broadmoor Mute Swans years ago and have never reported them on
eBird. I have been seeing so many report them lately and have been tempted
to report them, but have not. I know they belong to the Broadmoor.

The Broadmoor has had resident Mute Swans for many years, their birds,
not wild. For those who use eBird, if you "Explore Species" for Mute
Swan in El Paso County, you won't see any sightings, though many of us
have reported the Broadmoor birds, because they are not wild and,
therefore,
I believe someone posted a couple of weeks ago that they are the
Broadmoor's birds (they spoke with someone at the Broadmoor to find out).
They're still beautiful birds, though!

Today, Feb 8, I saw the Mute Swans at the lake at the Broadmoor in Colorado
Springs, El Paso County. How do we know they are wild birds and not permanent
birds at the Broadmoor?

Yesterday while doing our raptor routes in Boulder CO, Tammy and I had 2
Mute Swans on the pond just north of Lagerman Res. and west of the entrance
to Lagerman. Does anyone know anything about these birds? We've never seen
them at this location before.

For a change of pace, read the news about a Mute Swan that is attacking and
destroying model boats in England, where model boat clubs take their expensive
hobby as seriously as model train clubs take theirs in this country. I’m not
sure whether this swan is owned by QE2, , as some are, but
COBirders,
Checked out Lower Latham and Beebe Draw this afternoon. Most interesting
find was a pair of Mute Swans in one of the large ponds on County Rd. 48
between 43 and 47 roads (photographed.) Another flooded field along 48 held
a couple of Long-billed Dowitchers plus the usual suspects.
