Trumpeter Swans

Several hundred of these swans, winter in a stretch of the Mississippi warmed by discharged coolent waters of a nearby power plant. 30 years ago there were no Trumpeter Swans in Minnesota due to market hunting in the 1800's.

They look so handsome with their sharp contrasts. I gotta drive up there and see these.
