Rediscovered species

Exciting news today! The Ivory-Billed Woodpecker is back! Ornithologists have recorded various sightings of this bird, which was previously known to be extinct since 1944. The woodpeckers are found in Arkansas and there is no word yet on how many actually exist. But what a discovery!

Also, I thought this was really interesting and cute. Toad tunnels built to help amphibians cross roads.
