| Imminent Relocation: As of the end of June, this humble birder will be relocating to central Florida. At the same time, this website will begin redirecting viewers to a new and improved site, located here. This site will remain up until the University of Michigan deletes my account. Please update your bookmarks accordingly. |

Death by Swan? I've always heard that swans can be dangerous, even capable of killing a person. After an extensive and fairly fruitless internet search, I suspect that swans very rarely injure or kill humans. However, I did find mention of a couple of swan-related deaths in Ted Williams' article in the Nov.-Dec. 1997 issue of Audubon, the text of which is hosted online here. |
