Trumpeter Swans are North Americaโs heaviest flying bird, with males averaging 26 pounds. To get all that weight up in the air the swans need at least a 100 meter-long โrunwayโ of open water: running hard across the surface, they almost sound like galloping horses.

This is a juvenile Trumpeter Swan suffering from lead poisoning at Lake Rebecca Park Reserve in Rockford, March 1st, 2021. Posting this to raise awareness of the potential dangers of lead in our environment and to encourage my fellow Minnesotans to advocate for these birds.

As far as I can determine, the Toronto birdwatching record is 221 species seen within city limits in a calendar year. I'm not only taking a shot at beating it this year, but also at taking a decent picture of each bird. So ... 2015 Toronto Bird#1: Trumpeter Swan, Sam Smith Park, January 2

[Discussion]despite how similar they seem, Whooper & trumpeter swans are separated by around 2.59 million years of evolution, & both together are 10 million years removed from Mute swans,Yet some people(not all creationist)think we should be able to see lizards becoming birds in human time scales?
