John, did you know we now have another meleagris on here? He's a good guy and he has a number after his handle...I think it is 1, but maybe 2.

I've talked with him on the phone and he just got a nice new pup.

Hey, what's this about a crane season in KY?

Hey Chris!!! I've been hiding out too long!!! Good to hear someone is carrying on the strong Meleagris tradition! ;-)

The crane season has really been a beating! Kentucky and Tennessee proposed to have a limited hunting season on sandhill cranes during the 2011/2012 hunting season. It has the birders and anti-hunters up in arms!!! Those opposed to hunting were able to pressure Tennessee's Commission into backing away from their proposal to "Study it" for a few more years. Our plan doesn't go to our Commission until May and June. Until that is over with...my life is all about cranes! If you are interested...the info on our season is here..

Be good man!!! I'll pop by again soon!

Howard:

I'm not totally sure I know the "Oh my God" bird? I know the Lord God Bird (Ivory-billed Woodpecker) where there is still no credible evidence they have existed in the US since the Singer Tract was cut down during WWII....inspite of lots of wanting and wishing.

Thanks John, that woodpecker was the one I was thinking of. Supposedly, they had found one.

Not sure about seating on a duck, but I've heard folks talk about how their dog was dropped for sheetin on a duck. Something about violating the rule about bird needing to be fit for human consumption. :D

They had....Supposedly. The discovery was published in the top scientific journal in the world...Science. People flocked to Arkansas to help find this bird thought to be extinct, and people looked, and looked, and looked and an Ivory-bill was never seen again. At about the same time, a well respected biologist at Auburn "Discovered" another group in the Florida panhandle. This discovery had multiple sightings, sound recordings, and like the Arkansas discovery...a bad video (although the FL video really makes you pause).

At both sites tremendous effort was put into photographing the birds and yet no photos exist. I believe the Florida group to be more likely, but in saying that I still don't believe they are there. These birds are not ghosts...they are big, vocal woodpeckers. The last 2 places we knew they existed, Cuba (1986-87) and Louisiana (1944), crews went in, and once in the area, found them easily. James Tanner spent 1935-1941 studying them at the Singer tract in LA. There are pictures of the young birds sitting on his shoulder.

Moral is...I unfortunately don't believe they are still around. I hope to be proven wrong, but just like the bigfoot sightings and black panther sightings here....I say show me the photograph.
