-- To The 'Oldsters' Out There --

--------------------------------------------------------------------

This may go nowhere, but I'll try it to see....

Much of the interest in the Ivory-billed Woodpecker has come in the last 6 years since the sudden announcement from Arkansas, or even going back to the 1999 claim by David Kulivan in Louisiana. But I know there are folks who have been continuously fascinated with this bird since the 40's, 50's, 60's, or 70's, growing up as children or teenagers reading/hearing about it.

If you are someone who has been interested in the IBWO from a very young age, decades ago, and remember how you got interested, I'd be curious to hear your story. Once again email me at: cyberthrush@gmail.com

The purpose would be to possibly fashion a blog post about people who are enamored of this bird today because of reading or experiences they had in childhood or teenage years, long before the current flurry of attention. So don't write me anything you DON'T want to show up in a blog post, and once again you can either use your real name, internet handle, or remain anonymous.
