Dear All,
      According to some researchers, the bird in the Arkansas video may be a pileated woodpecker, not an ivory-billed woodpecker.  Are the video images really clear enough to tell for sure?  Should be interesting to read the published article and the rebuttal by those who stand by the ivory-billed identification.  I wonder what the chances are that someone will get a better look at this bird in the very near future?
