Subject: Tundra swan among Trumpeters, Benton Co.
Good afternoon!

I found a tundra swan with six trumpeters yesterday afternoon west of Cole
Camp and was able to relocate them this morning north of where I saw them
yesterday. I got a couple pictures then they flew south. I drivev around
the countryside trying to find where tbey went, ended up back at the field
several hours later and watched them fly in and land in the same spot north
of Sieving Rd less than a mile west of Hwy 65 (which is just north of 52
junction that goes east to Cole Camp.

According to eBird they are rare, or at least in this area they are.
