Ok, it's been a while since we have been able to go to Mingo, Patty just hasn't felt well enough. Well that all changed this week. So for your Picture viewing pleasure I give you some Pictures she emailed to me here at work.
First off, a VERY rare sight here in Southeast Missouri out in the wild, Trumpeter Swans.
