Thanks for the info, I don't feed them a lot of bread, and will try and find the cracked corn and poultry pellets and will feed them lettuce. I think the Whooper swan (I called him Satchmo, as he sounds like someone trying to blow a trumpet!) is gone back to Iceland or Greenland for the summer, the last time I saw him last year was April 16th, he may have headed back a little earlier this year. I'm looking forward to this year's cygnets, there were 9 last year.
