Long answer, taken from one of the respondents on the Ivory-bill blog:

74% -- hoax by two or more people
19% -- hoax by one person, others unwittingly suckered in
6.3% -- sincere individual genuinely believing he saw/photo'd IBWOs, but
mistaken
0.5% -- a 7th grader's prank
0.1% -- a snowball made its way through Hell
0.1% -- IBWOs definitively confirmed

Short answer: bullshit.
