There was a Mute Swan on the south edge of Valley Junction in West Des Moines this morning. As you go south on 63rd Street, go just past Railroad Avenue, the tracks, and then turn right (west) on Lincoln Street. Within a hundered yards or so, the swan was visible in a large flooded field on the left along with some Canada Geese and a few Mallards. There was also an adult Bald Eagle in the immediate area.
