Observation details
Rare on Lake Champlain. First reported by Sarah Schmidt on 25 Jan. Initially only visible from the ferry dock as the bird rested on land with a mallard completely invisible from the roadway. The bird eventually waddled into the lake and began foraging in the shallows north of the dock. Immature Mute Swan. Mostly white throughout with some dark juvenile feather patches still retained. Grayish bill with tiny knob beginning to form.
