Imperial Dreams—In Search of the Long-Lost Imperial Woodpecker Tim Gallagher, Author and Living Bird magazine Editor-in-Chief Tim Gallagher will share adventures and photographs from his journeys in search of the spectacular Imperial Woodpecker in the vast mountain forests of Mexico’s Sierra Madre Occidental. Large as a raven, with the deepest black plumage and brilliant, snow-white flight feathers that showed as a white shield on its lower back while perched, the Imperial Woodpecker is the closest relative of the Ivory-billed Woodpecker. But is there any chance that this spectacular bird still exists? Join Tim for a fascinating evening detailing his recent work in Mexico. Tim's new book, "Imperial Dreams—Tracking the Imperial Woodpecker Through the Wild Sierra Madre," was ranked #1 in "bird watching" on Amazon.com<http://Amazon.com> today. The book will be available for purchase and signing.
