We report on SWIFT/XRT observations of the well-known X-ray binary and jet source Cygnus X-3. We analyzed observations that were made on 2004 December 28 (3 observations), 2005 June 10, 2006 May 2, May 10, May 13, May 17, July 26, July 27, 2007 December 2, 2008 April 18, and April 23-30. Using XSPEC v11 and fitting the spectra with a power-law in the 2-10 keV band, some spectra showed evidence for three Fe emission lines at 6.4, 6.7, and 6.97 keV, consistent with low-ionization Fe, and He-like and H-like Fe.
