Readers may be interested in the photo of an Ohio warbler at http://birding.aba.org/message.php?mesid=1220457&MLID=IDF&MLNM=ID%20Frontiers, where you can link to a lot of guesses. Seems like a good lesson that if you see something really interesting, take more than one photo...or at least furnish some rudimentary field observations. More importantly, I see in reports in http://birding.aba.org/message.php?mesid=1220159&MLID=MO&MLNM=Missouri, http://birding.aba.org/message.php?mesid=1220312&MLID=KS&MLNM=Kansas, and http://birding.aba.org/message.php?mesid=1220400&MLID=KS&MLNM=Kansas some pretty staggering four-digit numbers of trumpeter swan flocks reported in those states. These big white alien birds, lovingly welcomed by many wildlife agencies and too many birders, seem--as many of us predicted--to be horning their way into the habitats of native swans.
