I've long been a fan of Arthur Cleveland Bent's natural histories of North American birds, even though some of the writing is now outdated. His account of the Ivory-billed Woodpecker (actually written by Arthur Allen prior to Tanner's monograph) is available online here (scroll down several pgs. to reach IBWO):

And finally, a good recent, close-up photo of the birds here ;-) :

Lastly, Mike Collins proudly shows off his new La. license plate here:

(Searchers in Louisiana on the lookout for Ivory-bills, can now also be on the lookout for Mike's Honda driving down the highway!)
