And how long before the enviralists screw the hunters by closing off access to the area?

That is one good-looking bird!

What surprised me about this article is that it recognized the vital role outdoorsmen play in conservation. I couldn't believe it was coming from Reuters.

Hunters/Hunting Orgs. give more money for the conservation of wetlands, etc. then any other group out there. Evirowhackos included.

I wonder if PETA has just one story that even approaches the success of this program. This shows what rational, logical thought and techniques can accomplish. Meanwhile PETA is euthanizing dogs and protesting KFC.

I said the same thing the first time I saw a pileated woodpecker. That's one big bird!

various reports of sightings of the big bird -- jet black and bright white with a red crest on the male -- were dismissed by professional ornithologists. Of course.

I saw one in Stevenson, AL on a backwater of the Tennessee river in the spring of 1989. Everyone has told me I was wrong; it couldn't have been an ivory-bill.
