Swans in the field and in the air

 When I received the message about the swans, I realized I could go and see them from the car. Never was birding so easy. Though I was notified about Tundra Swans, I found Whooper Swans as a family in a field. 6 of them were feeding peacefully. Suddenly all action stopped, heads turned toward the sky. A group of 5 other swans flew over, circled once and left. Here I found a Tundra Swan, but there was only one I could clearly see. 

Whooper Swan, オオハクチョウ





Something is up



5 more Swans!





Look below. The one in front doesn't have that extensive yellow on the bill. 
Tundra Swan?, コハクチョウ? Or just a young bird...
















There aren't many days when I see 11 swans in one go!
