Good luck on the swan tag I know you want that one.... Sandhill crane would be neat too, you haven't got one of those yet have you?

I had a swan fly over me on the Altamaha River a few years ago. I could not remember if it was in season and it was out of range anyway, but it was a cool experience seeing one

Swans are a series of long sad stories for me.
Cranes aren't much better, though at least it was only one trip. Where we hunt over in Canada there are swans by the thousands but you can't shoot them unless you're a native american or have a nuisance permit. DLH

I dunno. Shooting a sandhill crane seems like shooting a flying folding lawn chair

They're a waterfowl and I've never killed one so they're on my hit list. I've tried, but without success, wary would be a way to describe them.

So, Destry; would it be fair to say that you are currently "singing a 'Swan Song'"?
