I checked the Canon City Valco Ponds three times today but no sign of the 10 Tundra Swans chased off yesterday by an amateur photographer whose greed deprived these magnificent birds of a normally quiet pond where they could rest and feed. I hope these swans were part of the groups of swans that have been reported today at ponds/reservoirs in northern Colorado. I added two more photos of them on my Birds and Nature blog<http://BirdsAndNature.blogspot.com>as they circled and gained altitude yesterday that show their gracefulness and beauty in flight.
"First and foremost, view wildlife from a safe distance for both you and them. Respect their spatial needs. If the animal interrupts its behavior (resting, feeding, etc.), then you are too close and must distance yourself." from Wildlife Code of Ethics SeEtta Moss Canon City Blogging for Birds and Blooms magazine @ http://birdsandbloomsblog.com/author/seetta-moss/ Personal blog @ BirdsAndNature.blogspot.com<http://birdsandnature.blogspot.com/> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
