Hi folks,

Just got a call at the sanctuary by someone from
Oregon who believes he saw a Bewick's Swan, which
I understand to be the European race of the
Tundra (please correct me privately if I'm wrong)

He says he's familiar with both this bird and the
Whooper, and that it definitely isn't the latter
(darn).

Thought I'd share this with you in case anyone
wanted to see it.  I don't really know the
significance of it myself.

Location:  from Annapolis, follow
Arundel-on-the-Bay road to the end, where it
turns into Cohassett Road.  Follow to end to the
water.  The bird was in with several Tundras.

Good birding.
