Kevin,Steve,
I was told yesterday also about Black Swans on Cowm on Thursday to possibly Saturday with up to 3 birds involved.Typical when you dont visit something "good" is found.Long way from Australia to Whitworth.
Regards,
Dave Ousey.

Hi, all. Just got word of 3 B.Swan moving high to N.E. over Clowbridge res. this a.m. Further inquiries suggest that these birds may be from a brood hatched at Mitton this summer.

Bob.
