Ohio in October

[XemaSab]

I am hoping to get out to Columbus for a few weeks to campaign for Barack and TURN OHIO BLUE!

However, I can't imagine I'll be knocking on doors the whole time.

I'm guessing I'll be too late for neotrops, but I'll list them in vain hope someone can suggest a good spot.

And since I'm going to be driving there, maybe someone can suggest a good spot to pick up a few species on the way out.

I still need:

Alder Flycatcher
American Woodcock
Connecticut Warbler
Golden-winged Warbler
Greater Prairie-Chicken
Henslow's Sparrow
Mourning Warbler
Philadelphia Vireo
Rusty Blackbird
Yellow Rail
Yellow-bellied Flycatcher

1. PM me about your visit, maybe we can go birding

I don't know about getting any of the birds on your list, though - Henslow's Sparrow is the best possibility. Everything else either doesn't occur here or will have migrated through already. But, if you need things like Leconte's or Nelson's - that's a good possibility. October is supposed to be good for Orange-Crowned Warblers, too (the only one I've seen was last October). And a few shorebirds should still be around up at the Lake Erie marshes.
