Last week I went for a walk and found this one lonely Trumpeter Swan by himeself...His beak looked like it had had some damage. (otherwise he seemed alright) I watched him for sometime to make sure he was ok.....I decided he just enjoyed being on his own and enjoying the shallow warmer waters of the Lake. It was a wonderful sunny day but for a few brief moments the sun went behind some clouds momentarily.........I hope you enjoy Trumpeter #134 in all his glory........... ;)
