As far as birds reported and confirmed...Barn Owl has a big chunk in the
Eastern half of Ohio.

I think if you go by the OBBA Data, it would be a Swainson's Warbler...at 1
probable report...I think someone was looking into Pennsylvania when they
saw it though. :-D

Peregrines are pretty rare....But maybe, I think that Chuck-will's-widow
that resides in the southern portion of the state, will probably be the
rarest breading bird. that is confirmed...maybe Sandhill Cranes.  There are
breading pairs dotted around the state...but I think there are more of
those than the Chuck-will's Widows

Piping Plover would have been one, but there hasn't been any reported as of
the past few years..so...

There are also Black Rails...but those again, are listed as probable.

Later,

Steve J
