Hi, Tweeters.

I have a question I've been wanting to ask--

How true are the following old handwritten notes in my NGS FG, gleaned from
some unidentified source(s)?

1. Tundra swans are usually in flocks in winter / Trumpeters more often in
pairs or small groups, or on the periphery of flocks.

2. In southwest BC, Trumpeters are more likely to be found near the ocean,
preferring estuary marshes / Tundras are more likely to be found further
inland, up the Fraser Valley. Same for southwest WA and the Columbia valley.

3. In southwest BC, Trumpeters are the common swan, Tundras not common /
More Tundras in the Whatcom Skagit area.

Any comments or clarifications will be appreciated.
