Description	Title taken from caption. Caption also says: "[August E.] Miller holding the swan, which we caught in the front end of the boat." Previous photo caption reads: "A wild swan captured alive by Miller. Being at the height of its molt is was unable to fly and so was easily overtaken and captured by the power dory. It made such a disturbance with its great white wings that we were glad to let it go again." Based on locations given to other photos in series this photo was most likely taken on Naknek Lake.
