THE TSCO  5-YEAR TRUMPETER SWAN SURVEY 

​

The Trumpeter Swan Conversation Ontario (TSCO) 5-Year Trumpeter Swan Survey is a tool used to gauge the sustainability of the Trumpeter Swan restoration efforts and to identify changes in their habitat in Ontario. 

​

In 2025, the one-day Survey will take place on Saturday February 1 with Sunday February 2 as a backup date.   

​

The sighting locations are throughout Ontario and are focused on the wintering locations for the swans. There are approximately 156 locations.  

​

The survey relies solely on voluntary participation coordinated through Trumpeter Swan Conservation Ontario. Volunteers are confirmed as observers for specific locations by the TSCO. The observers will be instructed by TCSO on how to safely perform and accurately document the observations. A liability waiver must be signed by the Observer. The Observers will document their sightings in a web-based TSCO database.  

​

TSCO members will be available throughout the day to provide guidance and support.  

​

If you or anyone in your organization would like to volunteer to take part in the Survey, please fill out the participant form below and we will be in touch with you.
