I carve a few every year

Very nice, have you ever completed any oyster catchers ?

 

[SJ Fairbank]

Very folksy, lots of attitude in that rig.

WOW!!! That is so cool. Makes me wish I paid more attention in Ornithology class, I'm still horrible with SBBs (Small Beach Birds).

D. Hinton,
I have not tried an oyster catcher yet although I see them all the time. Last year I carved my first kingfisher with a fingerling in it's bill. Some guy stopped in my shop and asked if I'd make him one. Usually don't like doing commission work. I'm always worried they won't like how it came out. LOL
