Hello all,
Just wanted to let everyone know that the pair of mute swans in Smiths Falls are a domestic pair purchased by the town.  They are hoping that they will breed and keep the Canada geese out of the park.  Three years ago they bought a pair of Bewick's swans but one of them died last winter, so they got the mutes this year.
Good birding,Kim Clark
