Chris, We have a small population of Bachman's sparrows here at Fort Campbell which use the oak barrens and native grass fields. I have heard that they also occur in regenerating pine clearcuts in TN. Someone else may be able to shed more light on their pine habitat use. I will be leading a field trip on Fort Campbell later in the Spring for the NTOS if you are interested.

Bachman's Sparrow and Red-cockaded Woodpecker are two life birds that have eluded me for several years now. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to look for either of these species? I'm aware that Red-cockaded Woodpeckers are extirpated in TN but perhaps there may be a colony or in northern Alabama or Georgia?
