Tundra Swans

First group of Tundra Swans I’ve heard this Fall was last night about 10 PM. Stepped out on back deck to see if a raccoon family was feeding under the platform feeder. Have a mom with 2 kits that comes in to feed on bird-scattered sunflower seeds. And, they were feeding away. 
 
Turned to go back in house & heard the distinctive calls of Tundra Swans headed South. Came right overhead. Good-sized group by their calls. Couldn’t make them out, by sight, in the dark with overcast. But, a great night time sound! Should get more & more, over the next week or so.
