The Trumpeter Swan that made headlines when it was first seen at NH Audubon’s Abe Emerson Marsh in April is still here! This is the first time a Trumpeter has been documented in the state since 1784 and it has garnered a lot of attention. Author Diana Stephens has written an article about this swan and the story of the Trumpeter’s near extinction and comeback. It will appear in the Spring 2019 issue of New Hampshire Bird Records but we’re offering a free, online version now at the NH Audubon website.
