This afternoon I found a pair of black-billed swans on Artist Lake in Middle
Island. The birds kept to a small area of open water towards the south end
of the lake. Although distant, they appeared to be Trumpeters- probably the
same birds that have been frequenting Upper Lake in Yaphank, which is about
2 or 3 miles to the south.
Artist Lake is on the south side of Middle Country Rd (Rt 25) less than a
mile east of its intersection with Yaphank Middle Island Rd (Rt 101).
