As many of you may know, TWRA has been working with the USFWS to put satellite 
transmitters on Sandhill Cranes trapped at Hiwassee Refuge during the last 2 
winters.  There is now a Crane Tracker available on the Bird Studies Canada web 
site at the link below:
http://www.bsc-eoc.org/research/lpwwrf/index.jsp?lang=EN&targetpg=lpwwrfcranestudy

You can select individual cranes and see approximate locations and dates by 
season.  I don't know which cranes were banded in TN, so you'll just have to 
explore them all!

Cheers,
