George; My sons and saw either an Ivory Bill or a Pileated woodpecker pair that were nesting in a hollow Sycamore on Lewis Creek in the Cumberland River Gorge nr. Burkesville KY in 2003. We reported the sighting to UK but got mostly naysayers, who never even showed to look. The pair moved when a Levee building project earth moving got too close to the tree. Ever time we tried to sneak up on them to take a photo they'd retire. Shy birds but very noisy when they thought they were alone. We've wondered ever since which specie they were. Many River gorge areas have lots of wildlife that use the corridor as a refuge from human activity on the plateau or Mountains around them.
