  • There is to much white on the wings trailing edge to be a pileated woodpecker.

  • Why don't you just leave the bird in peace. Why must you need to "pin-point the bird's location" -- so that a crowd can go stare and gawk at it while it tries to breed and simply survive, or so some lunatic can go out and shoot it??? It is great that habitat is being reserved (places where people have no business anyway). It is because of all this focus that has and will push it over the edge to extinction.

  • In many rural communities where there exists proper habitat for the Ivory Bill, the ignorant residents have a myth that Pileated Woodpeckers actually kill trees, not live off dead and dying ones. Thus they shoot them out of this ignorance. The BEST thing we can do is identify Ivory Bills, create a tourism income stream for the area and get the trigger happy rednecks to shop shooting!

  • They are still searching because the bird is still extinct! Never in my life have I seen the public and media fall all over themselves this hard in blind stupor and gullibility! The "video" is totally inconclusive and is on par with the infamous Big Foot film showing the prankster lumbering through the woods in a cheap gorilla suit. Maybe the Ivory Billed is Big Foot's pet bird.

  • I just got back from a wedding in Hot Springs Arkansas. On June 29th I went hiking in the Petit Jean Mountains and I have what I believe is an Ivory-Billed Woodpecker photo. I also have a video clip. My camera that I was using has only a 3X's zoom but I'd like to know if I have the bird on film. I can be contacted at 262-620-3107. Ask for Steve.

  • Sitting on the front porch in rural South Arkansas, I just saw two ivory-billed woodpeckers!! Amazing!!!

  • The Ivory bill is gone,They were large conspicous birds,abroad by day,habitually calling loudly and very distinctivly.Decades of UFO style reports are a certain,but unintentional, death certificate. They were the King of the woodpeckers.Their kingdom has passed away,and them with it .PLEASE use your rightful passion for the wild to protect what we stll have.
