Sorry...I should have checked my facts first. According to a couple of articles on the web, the pileated is 16-19 inches long and the Ivory Bill 18-20 inches long. The wingspan for the pileated is 26-30 inches and the Ivory Billed 30-31 inches.....still big birds though and difficult to tell apart according to what is written.
