There are thousands of Tundra Swans at Brownsville Overlook. Started arriving
in large numbers on Thursday and more every day since.

I don’t know if they are headed for Brownsville, but all day long I heard and
saw dozens of groups of. Swans flying over my backwater cabin in the Weaver
Bottoms between Weaver and Kellogg. I suspect I will hear them well into this
evening before snow possibly begins.

I was at Brownsville today, and the swans are starting to show up.
There were a few hundred at the North Brownsville outlook. At the
south outlook, we saw Pelicans, maybe about 100. I am not experienced
in doing bird counts, so these are very rough estimates.

Hi all,
Has anyone been down to Brownsville to check out the Swan migration?
Any reports would be appreciated!

Hi All—
Despite heavy fog almost all day yesterday, John Holden and I enjoyed
swan-watching south of Brownsville along the Mississippi River. Never to be
deterred by inclement weather, I took some relatively unique photos of
swans in fog and posted them on my blog.

I stopped at the viewing platform as well as a little bit further south, where
the birds were closer to the road last Friday afternoon. The weather in Winona
has been quite good so far, so I doubt the river will freeze over at least in
the
next few days. There were thousands of tundra swans, as
We're thinking about a swan-viewing trip to Brownsville sometime in the
next 4 days, so I'm looking for an update on swan numbers there. I
haven't seen anything posted on MnBird or MOU-net recently, and the FWS
hasn't yet posted the results of this week's aerial surveys
