Kind of funny that just as the Gov’t. is wishing to proclaim the IBWO extinct, yet another book is coming out about this not-so-dead topic — I already mentioned Guy Luneau’s new volume just a few posts ago (and I suspect at least one or two more volumes are currently in the works). And now “Woody’s Last Laugh: How the Extinct Ivory-billed Woodpecker Fools Us into Making 53 Thinking Errors” by J. Christopher Haney is due out in less than 2 months (in time for Christmas), taking a slightly different (cognitive psychology) slant on the long-time debate over this species:
The resilience of this bird in human cognition, if not in physical presence, is phenomenal ;)

ADDENDUM:
Turns out that Matt Courtman is doing a Zoom discussion with Dr. Haney this Monday night (Oct. 11) at 8pm. for anyone interested; details here:
