So the plan is to eradicate the Mute Swan in NY? I know it is invasive, but that seems a bit harsh. I just got this petition against this plan, in case anyone is interested:https://www.change.org/petitions/new-york-state-department-of-environmental-conservation-stop-new-york-state-s-swan-killing-planThanks,Eric

Subject: Re: [cayugabirds-l] One special hunting season and two management proposals -black bear and Mute Swan.
There is hunting allowed in some places in the city and on the Cornell Campus. The permits are awarded by lottery, I work with one of the lottery winners.This is an interesting DEC post especially the management plan for MUTE SWAN. I guess we can look forward to having Mute Swan be a harder addition to the year list in the future. It points to the importance of eBirding our sightings as I imagine biologists monitoring the success of any future program will use eBird data extensively.Gary--Cayugabirds-L List Info:Archives:Please submit your observations to eBird!--
