Banding Association 
Annual Conference




The 2006 annual conference will be held in Tellico Plains, Tennessee (45 miles 
southeast of Knoxville) on Sept 22, 23 and 24. Registration will be held Friday 
evening followed by a reception, orientation and welcome by representatives of 
Cherokee National Forest. Activities will be centered in the Tellico Plains 
Community Center and will include a Saturday morning field trip to Whigg Meadow 
Bird Banding Station and workshop on aging by molt limits followed by a box 
lunch on the meadow. 




A Saturday afternoon paper session will precede the evening barbeque banquet 
featuring hummingbird expert Bob Sargent who will speak on the role of bird 
banding in the study of hummingbirds. Bob and Martha Sargent are well-known for 
their work with hummingbirds regularly banding eight hundred Ruby-throated 
Hummingbirds annually. Additional they have banded several hundred wintering 
hummingbirds of several species across the eastern United States in recent 
years. His program promises to be both entertaining and informative.




The nearest airport, McGhee Tyson Airport, is at Knoxville and is about a 1 
hour drive from Tellico Plains.
