Whistling Swans
Online Full Text
A flock of between 15 and 20 whistling swans (Olor columbianus) came onto the Alameda Gun Club's marsh in Sonoma County about the first of December, 1905. They were reported by the keeper at different times up to the last shot, February 15, when they were still there. The swans would not stay in one flock all the time, but would separate into bands of half-a-dozen to feed in the different ponds. They did not appear to be very shy, and not one was touched, as the law forbids. Never before had more than one or two at a time been seen.
