With a cacophony of chortles, whoops, hoots, and hound-like howls, the tundra swans have once again swooped down from the north to stage briefly along the Upper Mississippi River. Did I mention whistles? That, too, which gave rise to the magnificent birds’ former name of whistling swan.
Thanks, Kathi!
It’s a spectacle we try to catch every year.
