The first reports of Trumpeter Swans (Cygnus buccinator) in NYS were of
wing-tagged birds at Dunkirk Harbor, Chautauqua Co., in the fall of 1988. Since

I would like to thank Willie D'Anna (infinitely more qualified than I) for
clearing up some of my impressions on the status of Trumpeter Swans. Still,

black-billed swans on Upper Lake in Yaphank, Suffolk County. This is the same
