My son wanted to do some hiking in Ashtabula County and take advantage of the nice weather. I had a chance to check Conneaut and Ashtabula counties. Conneaut was slow with a small number of ring-billed and Bonaparte's gulls. Only birds of note were a killdeer and a lesser black-backed gull. Conneaut had a decent number of ring-billed gulls with little else. There was a single 2nd cycle Franklin's Gull amongst the ring-bills. At the North Kingsville Sand Barrens there was a savannah sparrow.
