The Tundra Swans have returned to the lake near our home in Chatham.  As noisey as ever. :D

Isn't it early for them to be returning?  I usually look forward to heading down to Long Point in March for the return of the swans.   A beautiful sight for sure.

It's the fall migration in Nov-Dec and spring migration in March. Some stay over winter near Lake Erie.

Where is this by the way? I used to see Tundra Swans down there, but not this many...

Pinehurst, just north of Rondeau Provincial Park.  They will stay until the lake freezes over.

Thanks, I have seen swans in that area, but far from that amount.

Thanks ... I didn't realize the timing of the fall migration.  Much appreciated.
