Lary Gara and I visited Metzger, Ferguson and Bresler reservoirs in Lima,
and
the Van Wert Reservoir today. Highlights were 525 Ruddy ducks at Metzger,
a Tundra Swan at Bresler, and 20 or so American Pipits in a plowed field a
few
miles south east of Van Wert. The Pipits allowed great views, walking and
feeding
