About 4:15 p.m. today while birding with a friend, we found what we believe to be an immature Trumpeter Swan near the old twin mast wreck at the western end of the Beacon Marina at Jordan Harbour. This bird was also there a week ago. After comparisons of immatures in a number of bird guides as well as Sibley's we think that it is a Trumpeter. If anyone else has seen this bird, please e-mail me directly to confirm type. Also seen in the marina today were COMMON MERGANSERS, BUFFLEHEADS, CANADA GEESE AND GREAT BLACK-BACKED GULLS.
Directions: Take the QEW andturn off at the Victoria Ave., Vineland exit. Go to the North Service Rd., turn right and proceed to the Beacon Marina entrance to your left and go left to the dirt parking area near the old wreck. B.
