About the Masthead Photo: These young Trumpeter Swans at Crex Meadows
are among the most endangered of waterfowl, but due to reintroduction efforts
throughout the U.S., including Ottawa NWR in Ohio, these birds are now recovering
throughout their range.
In 2002, a total of 52 nesting pairs occurred in 14 Wisconsin counties, including
32 nests in Burnett and Polk counties. Wisconsin's resident Turmpeter flock now
numbers more than 300 birds.
