A wonderful book . . . will be enjoyed by anyone with interest in either birds or the impact that humanity is having on its fellow travelers on spaceship earth.' Paul R. Ehrlich, author of The Population Bomb From eastern Texas the remnants of a oncemagnificent forest, nurtured by moisture from the Gulf of Mexico, extend a thousand miles to the Atlantic shore and as far north as Chesapeake Bay. This unique woodland gave birth to two woodpeckers, one largethe ivorybilled woodpecker, which has not been sighted in over ten years and which is almost surely extinctand the other smallthe redcockaded woodpecker, which may yet be saved.What distinguishes this bird from others is its unique niche. Its adaptations make it totally dependent on pine trees in an open forest. This ecosystemthat of the loblolly pine tree forestis the bird's onlly habitat. But these southeastern pine trees are valuable natural resources. Having withstood the ravages of nature for thousands of years, it is now entirely possible that the woodpecker will be lost because of a combination of 'benign neglect' and commercial interests.
