A loud, nasal "kent!" This call sounds like a false high note on a Clarinet. Also, a loud double knock on a tree that can be heard for great distances. Only woodpeckers in the genus Campephilus make this sound, and the ivory billed is the only one left in North America, and it is very, very, rare. The imperial woodpecker, another Campephilus bird, is almost certainly now extinct.
