I only had a few hours to bird this morning before I had other things that needed doing but I managed to find a few good birds.  Most notably, at Secrest Arboretum in Wooster I found 3 White-winged Crossbills, a lone female and then 2 males that were together.  They all were calling frequently making them not to difficult to locate.  Also at Secrest were a large number of Pine Siskins.  I would estimate (very roughly) that I saw around 50 to 60 siskins during my visit in several feeding flocks.
 
Other notable birds this morning include a Marsh Wren I heard chattering at Force Road in Killbuck WA (the place where the eagle nest is), several Tundra Swans at the same location,  My last stop, Johnson's Woods (which is located North or Orrville), was less productive than yesterday when I found a Rusty Blackbird there, but still produced all the regular birds plus other decent species like Red-headed and Pileated Woodpeckers.
 
Good Birding!
