Ever since I took Geoff Hill's Ornithology class at Auburn almost 20 years ago, I've held out hope. With the technological advances over that time, I'd think they'd have definitive evidence. Still a mystery.

Long Gone. But there are some believers that say the video of one around Brinkley AR is legit.

Do you think they are lost because of the way back fad of feathers, in women's hats. Millions of beautiful birds in Florida were killed for this. What say you?

According to 2 guest on the Gamekeeper podcast, they exist. Kind of like FSU’s football program is still elite. Both are probably gone.

I thought I saw one in Louisiana about 30 years ago. Could be wrong but it was the biggest woodpecker I ever seen.

Personally, I don't think they do but hope they do. With the technology available today, and all the public and private research grants that have been doled out in the last 20 years, one of these things likely has happened:

- they're extinct but folks still are looking in the big tracts

- they exist, and researchers have STFU about it to study and minimize disturbances

- "believed to exist" so the research goes on


They're the flying version of the black panther. People swear they have seen or heard one, and yet no legit evidence exists.

I saw a good candidate for one on the Tallapoosa River about 30 years ago, but I didn't see enough of it long enough to be certain.

Have quite a few of them around my house. Live in the creek bottom behind my house.


Life is a journey. Make sure and bring plenty of Beer.

My luck has been so bad lately, it could be raining pussies and I'd catch one with a dick broke off in it.

I've had those things about scare me out of a ladder stand when they would start calling above my head in the same tree.
