We got news from Wye Marsh about the marked Trumpeter Swan that graced Wingfield Basin for several days: she was banded in LaSalle Park, in Burlington this spring, in April 2007 and seen in Wye Marsh in May. It was hatched in 2006, and as such, is too young to have bred. The cygnet with her is likely one that got lost and found her company.
