Abstract: The largest woodpecker in the USA, the ivory-billes woodpecker lost practically all its old-growth habitat when loggers cut down the bottomland forests of the southeastern USA. The Cornell team won kudos from other researchers for its cautious analysis of their sound recordings, which turned out to have captured gunshots, not the distinctive double-knocks made by ivorybills. The ivory-billed woodpecker wings had a white trailing edge. The wings beats seemed very fast. And the size of the bird, measured as it perched on the tree, was much too big. Top-notch ornithologists wagered their reputations by declaring that the ivory-billed woodpecker still exists and two years later, the odds of its survival appear to be long.
