A quick (10-15 minutes) mid-day scoping of the north end of Argyle Lake in Babylon proved rather productive. The previously reported Red-necked Grebe was feeding by itself near the bridge, and approached within a few feet of the shoreline at times. A Peregrine Falcon perched on the sand island in the middle of the lake. Other notable birds included a Wood Duck, several Northern Shoveler, coot, Red-breasted Merganser, and a large number of Black Duck.
