The Lord God bird. Good news indeed! Here is the Cornell lab web page with
more information on the ivory-billed:

Interesting also to note, Wolfgang, that they waited as long as they could
before doing the press release- nearly 2 years!- to give the poor bird a
chance. Or at least so it appears. Not a bad idea, considering the
unintended harm a few hundred excited birders could cause.
