Swan Help: Tundra or Trumpeter?? (1 Viewer)

Well-known member
Can anyone help me w/ an id of a swan? I saw it within a nature preserve in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The first 2 pics and the last 2 pics were taken on different days but I believe they are all the same bird.

Thanks so much for the help.

At that distance it is hard to tell. I copied and pasted the photo into photoshop and zoomed right up to it. Obviously it was very pixalated but even so I couldn't see any yellow at the base of the bill.

I am not confident but I would say Trumpeter.
