Another Ivory-bill Job
This is for the Florida search:
We are currently taking applications for full-time searchers for the 2006/2007 field season. The minimum time commitment is January 2 to May 30, 2007. Searchers willing to work through Christmas and New Year holidays are also especially needed. Stipend is $1200/mo with no benefits. Anyone willing to join the full-time search without receiving a stipend will get special consideration. Searchers will live in a remote camp in a tent or in a bunkhouse and must purchase their own food. Please send resume, contact info for two references, and a page summarizing why you want to be part of the search, your level of physical fitness, and your skills as a kayaker, canoeist, hiker, and birder to Brian Rolek at brianrolekATgmailDOTcom. Applications received before Oct 15, 2006 will get first consideration.
Freelance birders may send descriptions of sightings or sound detections to Geoff Hill at ghillATacesagDOTauburnDOTedu.

That sounds like great fun! I've been camping and canoeing in North Central Florida before and I had a great time A Rufous-sided Towhee was added to my list plus we almost ran over a Limpkin with the canoe. I don't know who was more startled this big bird, or us.
Kept looking for the dear old Ivory Billed Woodpecker, but never saw one.
Found you via a comment on Mom-101 (went to the bunny pix first and then came to the blog). Bunny pix are HEELARIOUS. Also, I used to tag red-cockaded woodpeckers for the fish and wildlife dept., and I think your blog is neat.
