TN-Birders:
I have been following a thread on the New River Valley Birds mailing list for
last couple of days reporting the discovery of the IVORY-BILLED WOODPECKER in
Arkansas.
Tonight the e-mail lists are beginning to rage with reports of a major
ornithological announcement coming Thursday. Most sources will not say what it
is. It is supposedly being held as a tightly kept secret for political
purposes.
At 11:30 a.m. EST Thursday (4/28) the following persons are supposedly going to
make the announcement at a press conference: Gale A. Norton, Secretary of the
Interior; Mike Johanns, Secretary of Agriculture; John Fitzpatrick, Ph.D.,
Director, Cornell Lab of Ornithology; Katrina Kelner, Ph.D., Deputy Editor,
Life Sciences, The Journal Science; Steve McCormick, President, The Nature
Conservancy; Scott Simon, Arkansas Director, The Nature Conservancy; Scott
Henderson, Director, Arkansas Game and Fish Commission
