A Tundra Swan has been present in Wallkill since around February 4th.  Directions from Ken McDermott:  The BEST place from which to see it [on the 8th]...was to go [from Lippincott Rd.] back across the bridge [to the east side of the river] into Wallkill, take a left, proceed through the Village. Ultimately the road slopes slowly down and you wind up practically on level with the river. At that point there is an open grassy lot, good sized, on the left(the river side). At the end of the grassy area there is a green house with red trim and it's on the water. The Swan was right off the grassy area in the rapids feeding.
