The Ivory Billed Woodpecker

(1/1)

I think it they really want to prove that bird is still with us they need to give a camera to everyone in Arkansas so they will have no excuse to take a picture of it.

Oh I KNOW you are not doubting the existance of our lil bird!!  :laugh: :laugh:

seems there is someone on TV every other day claiming to have seen it. You would think if it were that common the scientists could find them... :-\

Kd5000:
Well, they were so beautiful, ppl still want to think there still around.  I hope that's the case. 

Woodpeckers and Sap suckers seem to stick out moreso then other birds. Especially if there a Red-bellied or Red-headed woodpecker.  Given the unique headshape of the Ivory Billed Woodpecker, you think if they were around, someone would have seem them.  I think they've just been heard, right.

Audubon did some wonderful painting of the Ivory Billed Woodpecker. Glad they were still around in his day.

injest:
the problem is that there is another woodpecker in the area that looks very similiar to the ivory billed...



the other one...the one which is NOT endangered has a patch of white on its neck...so it is difficult if you just catch a glimpse to know which you are looking at...
