Having been in Michigan with family until yesterday, I'm just getting started on 2018 birding. This afternoon, I dressed warmly and walked at the Secrest Arboretum at the OARDC just south of Wooster. I was able to find one of the resident mockingbirds, as well as several golden-crowned kinglets and a few horned larks. The best find for January was a small flock of *5-6 cedar waxwings* that were hanging out in a clump of magnolias in front of the Miller Pavilion in the northern-most part of the arboretum. That's one I missed in January 2017. Randy Rowe, Wooster ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
