People have been reporting sightings of Ivory-bills ever since they were presumed to have gone extinct in the early 1940's. For decades, these people have been ridiculed and ostracized no matter how impressive their birding credentials. All of that changed in 2004 when an Ivory-bill sighting by a lone kayaker in Arkansas' Bayou deView was passed on to the prestigious Laboratory of Ornithology at Cornell University. The rest is history, as they say, except that the person who forwarded the kayaker's e-mail to Cornell was Mary Scott. Find out who she is and why she's been left out of the story of the Ivory-bill's rediscovery.
