Swans of Minnesota

Photos of trumpeter swans summering and wintering in Minnesota. Normally with our harsh winters, swans would migrate out of the state. Warm water discharge from the power plant in Monticello, MN keeps the Mississippi river open for a few miles all winter enabling the swans to winter there.
