So, a fellow rehabber in Yuba City got in a juvenile tundra swan with an injured leg, and I'm taking it in tomorrow. This ought to be interesting! I'd better start preparing a pen and researching now, as I've never cared for a swan before. Shouldn't be too difficult seeing as I've raised ducks and know a decent amount about waterfowl, but it'll definitely be a new experience. Let's hope the poor thing can be nursed back to health before the tundra swans head back to the tundra in the spring.
