[TN-Bird] Nine pairs of Ivory-billed Woodpeckers ??

TN-Birders:


Bob Braid of Knoxville found the following on Mary Scott's website last night 
http://www.birdingamerica.com/Ivorybill/ivorybilledwoodpecker.htm 



This is very curious and at least something we might all need to continue 
monitoring.



Let's go birding.......

"I'm back after a summer of travel, so let's talk about the rumours!

  "A major university has been documenting a population of as many as 9 pairs 
of ivorybills on a river system that was never explored by James Tanner, and 
which did not make Bob Russell's Top Ten!  The river flows to the Gulf of 
Mexico.  It has provided a perfect "under the radar" home for ivorybills. It is 
expected that there will be an announcement about this exhilarating find at the 
AOU meeting next month.  As there is land acquisition in progress, there has 
been a real effort to keep this location quiet, and I will respect this 
decision by the discoverers for now. (This project has been ongoing for more 
than a year.) But WOW! As I've said for all these years ~ let's just get out 
there and look, and we'll find the birds! More to come. . ."
