Description
The Trumpeter Swan (Cygnus buccinator) with its wingspan that can exceed ten feet and weighing up to 25 pounds is the largest native bird in North America. In order to take off it can require one hundred yards. They will breed in Northwestern United States, Alaska and Canada and winter on inland lakes and ice-free costal waters.
Trumpeter Swans will pair up when 3-4 years on age and usually mate for life. They can live to be up to 32 years old in captivity but usually not more than 26 in the wild.
This one was in the Alcona Dam Backwater, located in Northern Michigan.
