Here are a few pictures of 4 of 6 solid tupelo teal that I'm making for someone on this site. Hopefully by weeks end I'll have the other two done, eyes set and bodies primed for painting.

Ah Hewy,

I don't care what flavor they are, a coot in drag is a coot in drag. Sides, meant to say common anyhow I just have'nt come down off my maple sugar high yet so I'm not thinking clear yet.

and "Coot in drag is a Coot in drag" is worth some slack.....

So sent a fella a flask of the "good stuff" whydoncha.....never had "homemade" Maple Syrple......

I'll send the flask if you don't have something handy.....whazzit cost to ship a 5 gallon demijohn these days anyway?

Purple moorhens you say?!?!
 
lead hating, Global Warming Supporting, tree huggin, bunny kissing, brother a break?

It's kind of funny.....I didn't know about the Snipe split thing until you told me....I heard about theh Canada / Cackler Goose thing here! Did you hear that? HERE for Gods sake....the last place where people care about stuff like that.....and don't even know how many "splits/lumps" have been made in ten years....heck I don't even have the "most current" bird book anymore......

Add that to the fact that I'm not even clever enough to know how to hide the fact that I Edited my own error and there ya go....CLEARLY I need some support from others of "like mind".....you know...other people who don't see EVERYTHING as a conspiricy agains hunting rights and gun ownership......

In thruth I actually did a Google Search on Moorhen before I edited.....Woulda swore I saw Purple on the Moorhen link I hit but clearly I didn't look close enough.......SOOOooooooo educate me.....what the hell do we call them these days?

Steve
 
Gallinule on the purple and common (or nothing?) on the moorhen, who knows why.

Believe me when I say I felt bad kicking you when you are down, I read that you are having family issues in FL. Sorry to hear that.
