Mystery
Bird maintains its elusiveness. Dr.
Geoffry Hill of
Auburn University 
After
two long seasons of field study, has
called a wrap to this year's work. He reports on his scientific
effort to locate the bird that many thought had been extinct for
over 40 years. The
Ivory-billed woodpecker is a most elusive and magnificent bird.
Brian
Rolek  Next
we talk with Dr. Hill's graduate student, who
just completed his second long stretch camping and searching for
the Ivory-billed. He provides a wonderful insight on what is
involved in doing long-term field research, reveals many of the
techniques used, and where he plans to go next on this journey. Join
us for a timely and insightful journey into the heart of this
significant research project.
