Each spring, the Tundra Swans along the Chesapeake Bay area of the eastern United States, make their migration north. They make a stop over at the Aylmer Wildlife Management Area in south western Ontario. Where they rest, and feed on corn provided by the Elgin Stewardship Council. Seeing a thousand plus birds in one location is a remarkable scene.
