Wednesday, April 30rd
Try to visit Babcock-Webb at least once a month. The slash pine-palmetto palm habitat at Babcock is favored by Red-cockaded Woodpeckers and Bachman's Sparrows.
The Bachman's Sparrow is a very sulky species and are best located while they are on territory, basically around April when the males are singing. But observations at Babcock this past month were very rare this past month. So where did the sparrows go? April is probably the best time to find Bachman's but virtually no one were reporting these birds. I made three trips in April myself.
