There are four birds which I believe are Tundra Swans at the Natchaug  
State Forest Beaver Dam Marsh. Two are pure white, and two have 
white  bodies with light gray necks. All four have jet black Bills, 
and I could not  see any yellow in front of the eye on any of them. 
The upper mandibles are  concaved shape curving from eye to tip, which 
I believe eliminates  Trumpeters as a possibility. There were four 
swans there a week or so ago on  which I thought I could see orange 
bills, but I had an excellent look today  and all four are definitely 
jet black
