I heard these Tundra Swans coming over the hill, but it took me a moment to realize that what I was hearing was somewhat unusual, at least in my book. I had never seen migrating Swans before! When I zoomed in on a photo I quickly took, I could make out the all black bills. Clearly no orange. What would they doing here so late in mid-December? They were flying SSE. I make them out to be about fifty in number.
