A pair of trumpeter swans have made Wawa a stop. It isn’t the first time trumpeters have been here, but they are so very exciting to see. They are huge birds, weighing in from 20-25 pounds with a wingspan of 79.9 in (203 cm). The couple is enjoying a sojourn on the lagoon ponds, and are easily visible.
If you go down to see them, enjoy. Be quiet, and don’t startle them.
My thanks to the Wawa-news reader who alerted me to their visit!

The swans have been sighted in the pond all summer, and for at least 6 years.
