Another exciting update from the AP

Here.

An excerpt:
And Rideout said it is possible that Davis and Robison did see an ivory-billed woodpecker.

"It's definitely not always a black or white with this kind of thing," Rideout said. "I think because the sighting was in an area where there have been other sightings, we will have some search effort in that area this year," she said.
Update: The Commercial Appeal (Memphis) gives the story this headline: "Sighting revives woodpecker hunt".

Davis, the city planner for McCrory, and Jay Robison, who works for the Arkansas Department of Economic Development, were driving near Cotton Plant last Friday when they decided to tell a ridiculous, unbelievable story about how they saw a female ivory-billed swoop behind an oncoming truck.

Fixed APs type.

Sometimes there's a little bit of red thrown in.

"Sometimes there's a little bit of red thrown in."

Or sometimes an abnormal whitish color, as in the original Bobby-n-Tim sighting
