Even though it was a wet, dreary day, got to see some beautiful birds on the Swan Tour sponsored by California Department of Fish and Wildlife. More than 100,000 tundra swans migrate along the Pacific Flyway to spend winter in California. The swan tour was a great way to see these stately, elegant birds, weighing more than 20 pounds with a greater than 5 foot wingspan and with such calming sounds.
The tour covered District 10, 23,000 acres of privately-owned rice fields and restored habitat; which has one of the largest seasonal concentrations of Tundra Swans in the Central Valley, as well as ducks, geese, shorebirds, herons, egrets and raptors. Tours are Saturdays at 9:30 am, and 1:00 pm - November through January.
