Here is a Hand Carved Gunning Style Split Tail Avocet Shore Bird Decoy carved by myself (Sam McKamie) It is carved with pocket knife and rasp  from cedar after I have done the initial sawing and drilling. This little decoy has tack eyes, a hardwood bill, and nice thigh detail. The wings are relief carved and elevated and split at the tail as shown in the pictures. The stand is included. It is painted with a gunning style like those old working decoys of the past. This one measures 15 1/4 inches from the tip of the tail to the tip of the bill, 12 1/8 inches tall, and is from 1 1/2 inch stock. This would make a fine addition to any collection!
