I just Googled Fulton, and it looks like he's everywhere.

He's scheduled to speak in Fort Myers on January 12. From this link:

In his presentation Dr. Robert Fulton, PhD, describes his involvement in the search for the ivory-billed woodpecker, an amazing bird long purported to be extinct. A native to South Florida, Dr. Fulton is an outdoorsman, writer, and long-time naturalist. In April 2006, Dr. Fulton joined the team of volunteers and scientists put together by Cornell University’s Lab of Ornithology to explore the Bayou de View in Arkansas’ Big Woods to search the swamp for clues of this incredible woodpecker. In November 2006, Dr. Fulton led a crew through the Choctowatchee River in the Florida panhandle investigating sites where promising information of the species has been collected. Come be one of the first to hear what he and his team discovered as Dr. Fulton shares the experiences of his adventures and his endeavors in protecting the bird’s habitat.Admission is $5...

Also check out this link relating to a presentation he did last October (the bold font is mine):

...Dr. Fulton and five other volunteers spent two weeks in April of this year exploring the Bayou de View, a swampy area of Arkansas’s Big Woods. In doing so, they worked with Bobby Harrison and Gene Sparling, the two men who made the initial find in 2004. The program’s photos “are…a testimony to the beauty of and benefits from conserving such important places. What the searchers learned is proving to be a bonanza of information — information which Cornell will use to further increase its knowledge of birds and other wildlife.” Copies of a book detailing Dr. Fulton’s experiences with the team will be available for purchase after the program.
