(see attached checklist for other bird species
seen in Manitoba.) We returned to Winnipeg
about 5:30 pm. and by 6pm we were on the
road to the south (Manit., 75). Dr Emerson,
just above the U.S. Border, we camped for the
night; it was warm & very insectary, but our
tent provided a haven. While at Delta we
also saw the pen of captive Trumpeter Swans
& heard of egg that they have there.
