I did not have as many Tundra Swans as you on Cayuga Lake Today but I did notice many more than usual for mid-winter.

They’re quite spread out and mixing with Canada geese. Yesterday, I guess there were 200-300 (maybe more). Is the same true on Cayuga Lake? Also, I’ve seen an adult Bald Eagle several days in succession eyeing ducks from lakefront trees and catching a fish. (This is as I drive by, slowly, since there isn’t much room to pull over and park.) The location is on Rt. 38, just north or south of Stone School Rd., but I suspect that location will change, as the eagle locates new hunting grounds farther up or down the shore. Anyway, three successive days of just driving by and seeing an eagle in action is a treat. Eben McLane --
