Hey Carver,

Those are beautiful, you are defintely in a different league than me. I am just trying to build hunting blocks but someday maybe get into carving reproductions of similar quality.

Did you ever encounter my Dad's cousin, George Soucy from Essex Mass ? He passed away a couple of years ago but was very involved with carving and competitions for the past 15 years or so.

I never met George Soucy but have heard the name before .
Thanks for the kind words . Heres a recent finished Loon .

these are very nice decoys. i noticed the pinholes in the wood. i get that problem a lot with my working dekes which are white cedar. i was just wondering wat you were using and where i might be able to get some seeing as how theyve put a ban on cuttin down white cedar around here.
