So the second day of the year, I found myself at a familiar location, Pocosin Lakes National Wildlife Refuge, Pungo Unit. I had seen videos and reports of good numbers of Tundra Swans, and since the temperatures were going to be chilly I decided to take the drive. As usual, stayed at the underwhelming Holiday Inn Express in Plymouth, NC, and got up early to be on site around sunrise.
