All these people who keep saying 'It can't have been a mistake' are so far out of the loop of bird identification it's unreal. Why do we have to listen to these fools spout off about something that they patently know very little about. Once anyone says those words, they betray an immense amount about their attitude to bird identifcation. The more experience you get, the more you realise just how possible it is. Especially when idiots like these lot in the Choctawhatchee are involved.
Interest is dwindling as more folks are becoming aware of the real situation. John Wall was spot on. To the gullible dudes who still post every unsupported Ivorybill "sighting" to unrelated bird lists, like the idiotic virus warning messages of a few years ago: Please stop! You're only making fools of yourselves and filling e-mailboxes with unrelated rubbish. The Ivory-billed Woodpecker became extinct in the U.S. long ago, when the last breeding habitat was destroyed. There have been no credible reports since 1944.
Harsh maybe. But spot on.
