For bird lovers this is really huge! It's like sighting bigfoot or the Lock Ness Monster.

Uhh, Bigfoot and the Loch Ness Monster have not been proven to exist.

Exactly. And I don't believe they do. But, four hours ago I thought the same about the Ivory-billed woodpecker.

Ah, but it did at one point exist for certain.

Didn't they also receive a report of a passenger pigeon sighting not too long ago?

Fantastic!

The Citron Crested Cockatoo is critically endangered and is basically only found in captivity.

My pet could very well be the last of her kind.
