BIG THICKET NATIONAL PRESERVE, Texas (AP) - Corinne Campbell stuffs her gear in waterproof sacks and stuffs them and herself into a tiny circular cutout that marks the seat in her green kayak.
With a clear signal from the GPS unit clipped near her orange vest, she shoves off between large downed tree trunks. Then she propels her tiny needle-nose craft into a wide rain-swollen creek that wiggles through what's been called the biological crossroads of North America.
And so begins another daylong search for a giant bird that may not exist.
