All~

Here is a sample of the decoys that were entered in our first-ever CONTEMPORARY DECOY EXHIBITION last month. All 106 portraits can be seen at:

I hope to get these transferred to the LIDCA site soon.

Here is a sample from duckboats.net members. I hope I got everyone - please let me know if I missed you. I selected one bird from each carver.

THANKS VERY MUCH TO ALL WHO PARTICIPATED!

Steve, thank you very much for doing this! It's not often a lot of us have professional pictures of our gunning birds.
 
Steve,
Thanks for posting these pictures. They sure are some beautiful decoys. I really like the sneaking Blackduck (No carvers name). It kind of reminds me of s Shang Wheeler.

Looks like you caught a mistake! That Sneaker is by Rich Chmiel. I must have posted the wrong version.

Breakfast first - then I will repair.....

Thanks!

My compliments on a very successful event. I enjoyed every aspect and I was able to get some great antique decoys (just what I needed-more decoys). The competition was extraordinary.

Steve,
As usual your contributions of time and talent amaze us. Your calendar must have more than 7 days of more than 24 hours in it. Thanks for your great efforts before, during, and after the LIDCA show. We all appreciate your work.

Steve,
Thanks for posting my dirty bird. I think this is the first post of any of my decoys on the internet. Wooooohooo!

Hey George W.. I used your sleeper hen widgeon that you carved for me as inspiration for the rolled breast.
