During the spring of 1899 this swan was numerous in 
Lorain county where many were killed by hunters. It is a 
rare migrant in the state, seldom being seen in its passage 
unless stopped by stormy weather. Migration records are 
wanting.

The Trumpeter Swan is even less numerous than the 
Whistling, but passes across the state in its migrations. It 
has been taken on Lake Erie several times within the past 
ten years. Very little seems to be known of it as an Ohio 
bird. This swan may remain in the state during the winter.
