Very nice work Doug. Would you ever try a fairly large duck decoy type?

Good going Doug, cedar and you go good together.
Did you ever get a chance to paint the hummingbird? I always enjoy your work.

Thanks. No I haven't painted the hummingbird yet. I struggle with painting. As soon as I get the crops all harvested I'm going to try to get it finished.
