As usual, the IBWO is described in terms that observers of real IBWOs would find very puzzling.
Elusive? A distinctive single or double rap? A tiny, shrill, trumpeting call? Loner birds?
We're also now told that the Congaree Swamp, at 26,000 acres, is "maybe the largest expanse of ivory-billed woodpecker country still intact in the United States". But aren't we supposed to also believe that the Arkansas Big Woods search area is 550,000 acres of IBWO country??

"There is no reason to eat a small brown mushroom"
Actually, eating mushrooms is probably the most direct route to IBWO visualization.
"If we don't find it, that's certainly disappointing. But then everyone can move on ..."
Doubt it.
The search for the bird in the Congaree is in its second year, paid for by about $100,000 in U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, U.S. Forest Service and U.S. Park Service grants.
What a waste.
"There is no reason to eat a small brown mushroom"
What the heck is this guy talking about? What about Criminis? Or baby Portabellos? Shiitakes? Porcinis? Morels? There are plenty of small brown mushrooms that are edible. What an odd quote.
