I checked ebird for Savanah - ipswich. There’s one record to the north across Lake Erie.
Port Stanley I believe. Other than that, nothing. Makes sense - Ipswich is a coastal subspecies.
And winters in sand dune areas. Although I must admit I was expecting a few more on the map!
What with storm driven birds and all.
I checked a couple books too but I don’t have much for Ohio yet.
Good birding.
