Carol Reese Ornamental Horticulture Specialist -Western District University of Tennessee Extension Service 605 Airways Blvd. Jackson TN 38301 731 425 4721 email jreese5@xxxxxxx An elderly fellow who stops by my remote house to "check on me" stated that there had been several more ivory-billed woodpeckers found - in fact said there were seventeen of them. After checking around on the Internet and finding nothing that corrobarates his story, I'm inclined to think he made it up to impress me, or the rumor mill around the country store in MIfflin has produced a new whopper. Has anyone heard this, or any more updates on new spottings? Surely they would let us all know since it would be the second greatest news to hit the birding world in decades....
