When photographer Bill Cross <
turned in the picture above, show-;
ing part of the flock of from 10,000 <
to 15,000 which rested and fed on
Belvidere Bay, on the north side
of the Clinton River, near Ml.
Clemens, the information he of-j
sered amazed the boys.
“Did you know that swans
live 150 to 200 years ?“ asked
Mr. Cross.
“Do you realize there are 40
or 54) thousand of the birds In
the United States and Canada
now, but that 15 or 18 years ,
ago there were only 100?
Could but Don't
“And that a grown bird has a
wingspread of almost six feet;
that he’s a very vicious oppo
nent and could break bones very (
easily witfi his strength If you
tried to tackle him,” informed
, Mr. Cross.

because he’s lived near Lake St.
Clair for years. Seeing the great
flocks arrive every spring and fa 111
for a few days' -rest, he asked
questions and found the conserva
tion department in general, Karl
Goff, Oakland County representa
tive. in particular, ready to an
; swer.
Traced Them Home
He learned that, 15 to 18 years
ago, thp swan flock was a mere
700. The conservation depart
ments of Canada and the United
States, alarmed that they might
become extinct, stopped all hunt
ing of them. The flock still didn’t
increase. So they traced the
• swans to their homes in the far
north couhtry.
There it was found that Indian*
and Eskimos were using the eggs
for dye. An agreement-was made
to furnish dye if the natives would
leave the eggs alone.
Everett Thicker, Detroit conser
vation department man. revealed
there w-ere two flocks wintered
here on the Clinton River,
another on the lower Detroit
River. Each numbered about 800.
