T207 Revisited

Back in November of 2010 I took this picture:

And I blogged about it here.

If you look closely you'll see the bird is wearing a collar, and said collar reads "T207".

My friend Rosanne photographed T207 this year on March 15th.

That's a span of seven years. Pretty cool don't you think?

It gets better.

Greg Prelich runs the Birdquiz.net website, which includes a blog. And in her research about T207 Rosanne found this blog post: The continuing sage of Tundra Swan T207, where you will learn that T207 was banded in 2006 north of Nuiqsut, Alaska, and was first sighted in Whitesbog in 2008. And since in Whitesbog and vicinity every year since except 2009 and 2012.

And that is very very cool.
