"I stand amazed in the presence"
Still seeing a lot of guesswork on where the Singer Tract ivorybills went after the habitat was destroyed. Will the guilty party ever come forward and admit the truth? Is one of America's elite institutions to embarassed to admit they shot the last remaining Singer Tract ivorybills for museum specimens? Or would this have an effect on fund raising?

"the documentary will also explore the grass-roots conservation of the Arkansas outdoorsmen who most recently sighted the bird"
Will they mention that if you add too much "fertilizer" then the grass can really get out of hand and unsightly.
"they shot the last remaining Singer Tract ivorybills for museum specimens?"
If they had, we would at least have the specimens. As it was, their carcasses rotted in the swamp or were eaten by scavengers. Without habitat the birds were doomed. Scientists are convenient scapegoats for extinctions made inevitable due to near total habitat loss and relentless hunting pressure by non-scientists. I'm sick of hearing scientists blamed for the IBWO extinction while poorly informed outdoorsmen are praised for their role in the bogus "rediscovery" and "recovery" and for supposedly preserving habitat for a non-existent bird. The real culprits in the final IBWO extinction are a greedy corporation (Singer Company) in league with short-sighted politicians. The scientists weren't the ones engaged in wartime profiteering by exploiting Nazi POW labor.
