  • When word spread in Arkansas of a sighting of an Ivory-billed Woodpecker - a bird thought extinct - "Sunday Morning" correspondent Steve Hartman took up the challenge to capture it on video, if he could find one. In this report, which originally aired October 2, 2005, Hartman traveled to Clarendon, Arkansas, and braved snake-infested swamps, only to discover that a rare bird does not give up its location easily.

    The ivory billed woodpecker is one gorgeous bird. Thank you for sharing.

    The gentleman in the tourist office was my dad, Buddy Hodge. I remember seeing these extinct birds while we were duck hunting in the white river bottoms. I didn't know this video was out there!

    I saw my first Pileated Woodpecker, the Ivory Bill's cousin. The size of a chicken, I saw it mid-December and decided it was my holiday present.

    I believe it was not an ivory billed. More likely a pileated. Its not like a jurassic park down there or land of the lost. As a birder i want to believe but after the filming of that bird in 2005 its not been seen since.

    I love Steve Hartman - especially the stories he's done about his father! But I am not sure how a bird can be "notorious" - unless it ate a human being or something...

      They might seem similar but they have very different ecology and habitat needs. Plus ivory billed woodpeckers were more desired by collectors

    Pretty cringeworthy when the host started quizzing the visitor center on whether they remembered the few tourists that came by. A small town isn't going to have a lot of tourists, no need to make them feel bad about it.

    It's common for a functionally extinct species to still be occasionally sighted for decades after there is no hope. I could believe that really was an IBW that they saw in 2005, but with so few of them out there it probably never found a mate; by now there really wouldn't be any.

    I've seen two in one day,I was maybe in my low teens back in the 90s and my father said it must've been the same one.he did say something about it being rare but just shook it off and walked away. I literally lived the next 20+ years, up until 3 mins ago when I heard it was just officially labeled extinct, believing they were more common than not.thought I seen another maybe 6 or 7 years ago again here in Gloucester mass but I didn't get a good eye on it.but told people I saw one anyway.this is crazy. I can't belive its extinct.unreal. I don't believe they aren't out there somewhere
