Tundra Swan Family Flight - a photo on Flickriver

Tundra Swan Family Flight

"Tundra Swan Family Flight" by Patti Deters.

These three Tundra swans (Cygnus columbianus) were flying close together as they seemingly enjoyed the cloudy weather. You can tell these birds are tundra swans, sometimes called whistling swans, because of the small yellow spot on the beak - although not all of these large white birds have the yellow spot. Tundra swans have smaller bodies and shorter straighter necks than the Trumpeter or Whooper swan, with which they are often confused. Regardless, they are lovely to watch as they gracefully fly overhead. These Tundra are famous for their sounds - whenever there is a large group they are constantly calling to each other. They sound similar to geese. If you like outdoor nature photography, please see more images of birds and other wildlife at patti-deters.pixels.com/featured/tundra-swan-family-fligh....
