hen bufflehead decoy pictures

[Chris S.]

I got some things done I needed to get done so I have some time to start working on my foamer bufflehead rig for this season. I have painted a few drakes but want to do a hen or 2. I searched through the old posts and didn't really find much. Google was some help but was wondering if any of the carvers could post up some pictures of hen buffy's. I am not going all out with the green and purple on the head just basic black/white/gray/brown colors. If you can help me out it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I don't use many hens.

Here's Brad Snodgrass's best of division entry from the Columbia Flyway show a few weeks ago.

Search some of the carver's websites you can probably find dome pics there.

Chris - Hope this helps... Lots of buffies fell to these decoys last season. Take care and God bless! Pat

Chris:
Here's an E Allen Buffy that I'm almost finished with up. I "won" 4 of them last year in the silent auction and figured I should put them to use. I have 3 drakes and this hen.
