I've been noticing Cedar Waxwings in the southern Piedmont this summer which is unusual.
They are typically considered rare breeders in north GA.
Here are some photos that Michael Beohm sent me of ones he has found this summer.
 
Talbot County is down by the fall line.
Upson County is just north of Talbot.
