The legendary ?Ghost Bird of the South,? the Ivory-billed Woodpecker, 
has been popping in and out of existence for
the past century. Is the species extinct or not? It?s a question that 
remains unanswered and may never be answered
conclusively. How do you prove a negative?
Probably never common, the largest woodpecker ever found in the United 
States, the ivorybill lived in forested
bottomlands and swamps from coastal North Carolina across the gulf to 
east Texas. Cornell grad student and former
KTOS member James T. Tanner studied the most documented population in 
northeast Louisiana in the late 1930s.
What did he learn?
Join author and former KTOS newsletter editor Stephen Lyn Bales for a 
discussion about the completion of his new
book Ghost Birds. Nancy Tanner will be present and the two of them will 
talk about the day they discovered
unpublished photos of an ivorybill that led to a recent article in 
"Smithsonian" magazine.
Lyn will bring books to sell. They make great Christmas presents!
Stephen Lyn Bales is a naturalist at Ijams Nature Center here in Knoxville.
