Here is an exciting update from author Stephen Lyn Bales about his upcoming book:

I hold in my hands the proof pages of “Ghost Birds: Jim Tanner and 
the Quest for the Ivory-billed Woodpecker, 1935-1941.”

The book will detail the story of Dr. James T. Tanner, his study of the Ivory-billed Woodpecker and his extensive quest for the bird that involved a journey over eight southern US states.  It's due out in early fall.
