I apologize for identifying as Tundra's. Actually, from the pictures that I have (Lives of NA Birds - Kaufman and Peterson Field Guide) it is hard to tell the difference. I used the map as the basis of my identification. In "Lives of NA Birds" it shows that Trumpeter's do not migrate this far east and I was unaware of the program at the WYE MARSH WILDLIFE CENTER (see below).
Is there any way to easily tell the difference between a Trumpeter and Tundra swan?

The Wye Marsh in Midland, is responsible for the Majority of Trumpeters on Ontario.They would like any info that they can on the Birds and their Habits during the Winter. They are trying to find out if the Swans are migrating far or if they are healthy.By letting them know about your sightings(location,date and Tag Numbers),they can then have a better understanding of their Habits.

Two others were without numbers? I thought they were Trumpeter Swans. Could anyone verify if Tundra or Trumpeters ? I ve never seen a Tundra Swan. Humber Bay Park foot of Park Lawn Rd.
