[Chris] Elphick, who won a prestigious Partners in Flight award last year for his research on bird conservation, says it was “devastating” to find, after carefully examining the Cornell video, that the bird did not appear to be an ivory-billed woodpecker.
“Who wants to be the one bearing bad news?” he says.
The Sibley paper is the result of work by two independent teams that began careful examination of the evidence shortly after the Cornell find was announced.

I WENT BACK TO BIG WOODS
BUT MY IVORY BILL WAS GONE
THERE WAS NO WHITE SECONDARIES
THERE WAS NO MEDIAN STRIPE
SIBLEY HAD DISAPPEARED
ALL MY FAVORITE FIELD MARKS
MY IVORY BILL HAD BEEN PULLED DOWN
REDUCED TO A PILEATED
A, O, WAY TO GO FITZPATRICK
I WENT BACK TO BIG WOODS
BUT MY PRETTY IVORY BILL
HAD BEEN PIXELATED BEYOND REPAIR
BY A DISCOVERY TEAM THAT HAD ITS PRIDE
TRANSECTS OF BIG WOODS
HAD BEEN PEPPERED BY ARU’s
AND KENT KENT FILLED THE AIR
FROM PEARL RIVER TO THE BAYOU
SAID, A, O, OH WAY TO FITZPATRICK
