While not a rarity by any means (though a first for this hotspot in eBird),
there are 4 tundra swans resting on the ice and paddling about Jennings Pond
this morning. They are easy to see and photograph. So feel free if you are in
Danby and would like to have nice views of swans. š
Cheers,
There are 3 tundra swans to the south of the gravel at the swimming area.
It's very easy to get great looks

Friday around noon I saw and heard five TUNDRA SWANS flying north along the
shore of Cayuga Lake. I saw them from Taughannock Park, on the west shore
of the lake. I did not see where they landed. There were also quite a few
REDHEAD and COMMON MERGANSER still present.

There was obviously a big flight of TUNDRA SWANS last night and today. I saw a
total of 15 TUNDRA SWANS migrating today in smaller groups than the geese. In
addition, one birder found at least 36 TUNDRA SWANS in one part of Broome
County which is
unprecedented for down here.

This evening, at dusk, I saw six tundra swans, one clearly a first year bird,
just off the east shore of Cayuga Lake at (little) Gully Road. After having
seen the trumpeters closely so recently in Union Springs, these were obviously
tundras.
Associated ducks, but it was getting too dark for me
A pair of tundra swans on the mill pond in Union Springs this morning about
10:45. Both had yellow tags on the wings; I could read only one: A21.
Quite a few widgeons, a bufflehead, lots of Canadas.

Around 2:30 at East Hill Plaza I could hear flyover Tundras but couldn't see
them in the clouds. If they have been moving all this time that's quite a good
number.

Driving back from Rochester, after visiting Pine Grosbeaks Friday, I was able

In addition to the large numbers of waterfowl at Stewart Park already reported
by Laura and Ton, there were 6 TUNDRA SWANS near the east end of the park late
this afternoon. 500-600 gulls were loafing on the water offshore, but I
couldn't find anything other than the usual 3 species.

20 Tundra Swans are swimming together off the ice edge, SW corner of Cayuga
Lake. A few of the Northern Shovelers were sleeping on the slushy ice with
some Canada Geese at dawn, but I don't see them now.

There are presently about 40 Tundra Swans all the way south on Cayuga along the

At dusk about 40 Tundra Swans were settled in for the night west of the
lighthouse jetty at the south end of Cayuga. Earlier a small family came to
shore with the young one, feeding with Ring-necked Ducks and a small group of

Twelve Tundra Swans just took off from the SW corner of Cayuga Lake, flying

Hi all,
Apologies for not elaborating on my earlier Tundra Swan posting: this is a
very early report for Tundra Swans and I rushed to get it out on the list
should someone else make their way to find them.
In my traditional bout of second-guessing, and given the ID challenges
between the swans,
That's funny. I also saw a few Tundra swans on the south end of Sodus Bay,
just north of Ridge Road. Mute swans are fairly common on East bay, but
these are the first Tundra swans I have seen in my admittedly short birding
life.

Hi all,
This morning on my drive to work I observed two immature Tundra Swans on a
small wetland just south of Ithaca, at the T-intersection of Cox Road and
Rte. 13 in Newfield. This seemed like an early sighting for Tundra Swans,
and a quick check in eBird showed only a handful of October sighti
