Trumpeter Swans are moving to wintering areas from many northern and several Midwest states, and we are hoping to track sightings of them throughout the migration and winter season. We encourage you to alert us if Trumpeters show up in your area or surrounding states that you may visit while birding. Our program is called Trumpeter Watch and this is the second season. This year we are partnering with eBird, so if you report there we will see your sightings. If you post only to Listserv we will see your notes if you have Trumpeter Swan in the subject line but we could be delayed in seeing your valuable information if the sighting is in a longer list of species and not in the subject line. If you find Trumpeters, or have records of Trumpeter Swans remaining year round in your area, you can also email me direct at [log in to unmask] We have a number of identification tips on our website and a monthly free ENEWS to keep you posted on the project and other news about swans. We had an excellent year of reports last winter and we look forward -- with your help -- to another good season. Thank you.
