------------------------------ **Saturday and Sunday, June 13-14, 2009 Taladega National Forest, Alabama Leader: David Trently for Avian Pursuits Nature Tours ( naturetours@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, 865-531-1473) On a scouting trip to Talladega National Forest in north-central Alabama in May, David was able to find and view Red-cockaded Woodpeckers, Bachman's Sparrows, and Whip-poor-wills. He will lead an overnight trip for KTOS to attempt to locate these birds again. All are welcome. Because David will need to arrange transportation and lodging, advance notice is needed. The approximate cost for van rental, gas, and double-occupancy hotel rooms is $99 if at least 9 birders attend. If you would like to arrange your transportation and lodging separately, there is no fee but you should still contact David as soon as possible.
