Since then, there has been vigorous debate among ornithologists whether the sighting was legitimate or a case of mistaken identity.
That's a generous and misleading description of the controversy, insofar as it ignores other explanations for the "evidence" that are more proabable than a "legitimate sighting."
The U.S. government plans to spend $27 million
That's an unbelievable waste of money if any of it actually ends up in the hands of those responsible for creating the controversy ... well, let's just say that conservation is driving on bald tires.
Martin Collinson: "With no verified reports in the USA for over 50 years, it seemed impossible that a crow-sized black, white and red bird should have eluded the nation's ornithologists, hunters and conservationists in heavily populated South-eastern USA for so long."
Well said. Simple. Hits the major points.
John Wall: "There is no credible evidence that the North American subspecies of Ivory-billed Woodpecker Campephilus principalis survived after the demise of the Singer Tract birds in the 1940s after the last substantial patch of old-growth habitat was destroyed . . . . Campephilus are noisy, conspicuous, and relatively tame. "
Again, nicely done. Just lay out the incontrovertible facts. All the believers can do is sit and spin.
