For everyone wondering: this does not hurt the swan. The swan is doing a pretty good job considering that it has no idea what is happening

why is this necessary?
@TrumpeterSwanSociety2 ай бұрын
Thanks for asking the question! It's very important for tracking purposes. Each bird, or in this case swan, has unique codes on their leg bands/neck collars/wing tags when marked. When states/provinces have restoration programs they monitor the birds to see where they go, the landscapes they use, their mortality, if they have families and offspring, how long they live, etc. Without the ability to track the birds over time, none of that can be monitored to determine the restoration progress and how it meets the goals set for the restoration. An interesting outcome from the 'marking' of newly released swans in Oregon, we now know that one of the swans released in 2016 at Summer Lake Wildlife Area now has a home and mate in Montana. Other young swans marked and released at Summer Lake Wildlife Area have been reported in British Columbia and other areas of Oregon and Washington. None of that tracking information can happen without the unique identification of a particular swan and people reporting the 'marked' swans.

Thanks so much for sharing this. I wasn't able to be there for the live presentation, but I enjoyed watching the video a few months later. I live on one of the waterways of the Great Lakes in the US, on an island, and we have lots of "mute" swans. We also have many other waterfowl and other birds. My husband and I are bird watchers. I'm a biologist, who teaches, and we're both in the Audobon Society, and other Conservation Groups. Thank you for your work and especially for teaching people to respect and appreciate nature. Thank you!

Ranae- we are so glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for your kind words. The Yukon is a very special place for swans and their migration. If you are interested or know someone who might be interested in seeing this, the Trumpeter Swan Society created two activity/coloring education books for Kindergarten-Grade 5 that meet Next Generation Science Standards. They are free to download and on our web page: www.trumpeterswansociety.org/swan-information/swan-activity-books.html

Responding to the question of whether there's any historical record of trumpeter swans in this area (asked by a listener from Alaska at 56:50 kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3WwfqGNd8mhndE) ... See the February 6, 1804 entry in the journals of Lewis and Clark, where Clark wrote, "A fair day Snow nearly gone, Some Ice Still running Sick take Walnut pills, Winser killed a Badger. My P[ills]-work &c. great numbers of wild fowl flying Notherly. Swans in great number, river began to fall." Then journal entries from that week, especially Feb 4 & 7, 1804, make it clear that Clark is at the confluence of the Missouri River and the Mississippi River; Lewis references the "creek", which is "River Dubois", now known as Wood River. See lewisandclarkjournals.unl.edu/item/lc.jrn.1804-02-06 ... These places are very near the site of the Riverlands Migratory Bird Sanctuary discussed in this video. The 1673 diaries of Marquette and Joliet also note many swans on their journey. I have read diaries of 17th century Jesuit missionaries who note the abundance of swans in winter, presumably trumpeter swans. Carl Mitchell has studied in greater detail the historical record of places where trumpeter swans were previously common; he presented his research at the 2022 meeting of the Trumpeter Swan Society. As is well known, by the 1880s, at about the time the American bison was nearly hunted to extinction, the trumpeter swan also was heavily hunted, and subsequent decades saw loss of habitat. By the early 1930s, the trumpeter swan was thought to be extinct, but a government census found a few (less than 70) surviving in and around Yellowstone National Park. Trumpeter swans were extirpated from the St. Louis region from the 1880s until the reintroduction in the early 1990s. For a wonderful account of the reintroduction of the trumpeter swan to the American Midwest, see kzbin.info/www/bejne/m6WkaKuoZZ2Fg5Y

This journal entry was written by William Clark (February 6, 1804), just at the beginning of the famous Lewis and Clark expedition. "Swans in great number." The precise location is not given, and the rivers have changed course slightly over the centuries, but this observation Feb 6, 1804 was made at the very beginning of their well known journey, near the confluence, only a few miles from the current location of the site discussed in this video. I've been observing birds in this area since the 1980s. At that time, trumpeter swans had not been observed near St. Louis for a century. The successful reintroduction of trumpeter swans in the upper Midwest makes it so we in St. Louis can experience what Lewis and Clark observed: "Swans in great number"!

Its too tight on its neck, it must hurt
@TrumpeterSwanSociety8 ай бұрын
Hi! I appreciate your comment. You have a perception about collar tightness that others who see them for the first time sometimes do as well. That is why the description includes information about this common misconception. Rest assured the collars are not too tight- I'm not sure if you read this explanation in the description. "The collars are very light weight, weighing about 2 oz. or 55 grams. During winter, swan neck feathers fluff out for insulation, sometimes giving the appearance the collar is tight. However, the collars are designed to be the right size to stay on the neck, move freely but not slip off and still allow the swan to feed naturally and comfortably." Neck collars are designed specifically for each bird species. They are safe, lightweight and not too tight. But now you can see how a swan fluffs up its neck feathers for insulation to keep warm. Thank you!
