A couple of folks emailed me saying they thought I'd given Geoff Hill's latest article short shrift on the blog. That wasn't my intention, even if it seemed so because I only linked to it as a short "Addendum" to a longer post (and maybe some folks missed it entirely). So again, here is the link for Dr. Hill's latest perspective on things (while we still await the actual 2007 summary reports from both Auburn and Cornell) :

Dr. Hill argues among other things above that, even without a clear photo, the totality of their Choctawhatchee evidence is difficult to explain away as anything other than Ivory-bill presence.
And another reminder that Noel Snyder's new IBWO monograph is available here:

....on the lighter side of things, from the Web Grab Bag, this story of turkeys in Massachusetts acting badly:

and lastly, here one poor humiliated Screech Owl (what pray tell will his relatives think?!) ;-)
