————————————————
I left Twitter months ago when, like so many others, I could no longer stomach Elon’s destruction of the site (actually returned briefly after a month, just for poster @ibwo_discourse, but then left for good again). I do miss the occasional Ivorybill-related tweets. A reader just sent me the below April Fool’s Day post that someone tweeted of our beloved friend s'posedly perched in the Choctawhatchee (nicely-done, and sorry I don’t know who did it to give credit!). I assume tweeter @ibwo_discourse continues covering IBWO foibles/shenanigans -- if so, he (or she) has had a lot of fodder to play with lately. Twitter is also home to a large birding community and thus may yet occasionally have something significant about IBWO posted.
Anyway, Twitter joins Reddit, Quora, Substack, Threads, Surfbirds, and many other forums I just won’t spend much time with, so feel free to pass along anything you catch there and think important (or entertaining) — usually anything significant will meander its way onto Facebook (which I’d also love to drop, but can’t). Sad to say, just not a lot of great substance or significance is being released on the internet as we draw nearer to the close of yet... another... winter... search... season.... a season in which, if the birds survive, the roostholes, nestholes, foraging sites, they used daily for months yet again go undiscovered.
