Chalk another up on the backs of the duck hunter $...

Thanks for posting. I wonder if PETA would have done the same as the duck hunters to protect this important habitat.

Just to add to his story is one duck hunter (Dentist, Rex Hancock) who challenged the Corps all the way to Whitehouse actually stopped the dredgelines on then Cache.

I own land in the middle of the refuge, I'm watching what they do pretty close. I think I have heard the bird (or something close to the calls they have audios on), but have never sen one. I'll be looking for it.

Heard their going to kill large trees by injecting them so the IBWP can feed on insects. They have already closed 5,000 acres for the IBWP.

Here is a good link comparing the ivory bill with the pileated (which we see all the time). Both very big perkerwoods
