On our trip to Ottawa NWR today, we found the biggest concentration of
shorebirds on Bodi Road near where it intersects Lemon Rd.

The land between Lemon and Bodi Roads on OH-2 is now named by Ottawa NWR as
the Klontz Unit. The shorebirds were in an agricultural field where Bodi Rd.
turns west to intersect with Lemon Rd.

We also visited Park Colony Rd. and found many Killdeer and a few Least
Sandpipers:

This agricultural field on Park Colony is being worked on to provide better
drainage, so it may not be as good for shorebirds in the future.
