Neat. I can't wait to see this. I used the IB sightings as an example in a paper I wrote a few years ago on the epistemology of testimony. Interesting philosophical and scientific issues aside, one hopes that the region where the sightings occurred will use the notoriety to create a conservation and "ecotourism" industry. They should expand their focus beyond just the IB, think about birding tour guides, natural history museums, etc.
