Some Ivory-bill links

1. John Fitzpatrick is scheduled to deliver a keynote called "How Ivory-billed Woodpeckers (and other birds) Can Save the World: A Multimedia Lecture" at next month's Colonial Coast Birding and Nature Festival in Georgia.

More information is here.

2. Another paragraph on Alex Karpovsky's IBWO film "General Impression of Size and Shape" is here:
Once thought to be extinct, The Ivory-Billed Woodpecker is ‘rediscovered’ in Eastern Arkansas. Though numerous sightings have been reported, concrete proof remains elusive. Combing the bayou with a taciturn sidekick in tow, amateur birder Johnny Neander is getting close, but what he is about to find will undermine everything about this Southern mystery, and perhaps, himself.
A previous post on this film is here.

So if you could ask Fitz one question in a public setting, what would it be?

How does it feel to be the head honcho of the worst ID screw up in all of birding history?

A: What? You're still here? Turn off the lights on your way out, would you?
