A feather of hope

We thought the ivory-billed woodpecker was extinct.

But it has been sighted in Central Arkansas.

So wonderful to get a bit of good news for a change.

I just heard a story on it on NPR while I was driving home and was planning on putting up a post if you hadn't. So now I don't have to.

I remember hearing the NPR story that ran last year, when they were still searching for it. This is very cool.

It's on the front page of our local paper this morning, but I heard it here first!
