Tuesday at 1:00 and again at 4:30 pm I saw Approximately 350 swans on the river 
across from Shakopee, viewing from the Hennepin county side.  Best seen from 
one of the two pull-outs on Flying Cloud drive between Eden Prairie road and 
101.  There is a mix of both Tundra and Trumpeter.  Several duck species as 
well... Gadwall, shoveler, Scaup, teal, wood ducks.  A scope is required for 
best viewing (I had binoculars).   The clouds, rain and distance made it 
difficult to clearly identify all the ducks.  But I was able to get photos of 
the swans and there are definitely Tundra swans in the mix.
