Mississippi River Birds

Remember a few weeks ago we went looking for tundra swans?  It was amazing to be able to camp comfortably in November along the Mississippi River in Wisconsin.  We broke camp early and started our search.

We found this large mass of ducks, geese, pelicans and swans - the swans are there, you just have to look hard.

I enjoyed watching them all, just wish I could have gotten closer, but we looked, there was no way to get closer.

When Dennis was on his way home one day he saw a lot of white on the lake. He couldn’t tell what they were but decided to take me to check it out.

Unfortunately, this is as close as we could get. But most of those birds are Swans. I guess the Tundra Swans were migrating, because we haven’t seen them since.

There sure were a lot of them.
