Re: P & O

Thanks very much Doug. I’m fortunate to have a few bird hunting friends and I was given 3 hungarians this fall to skin and do with them what I wished.

Re: “Dotterel Counterfeit”

Thank you WSBailey,Greenwell and Bearbutt for the very useful postings. The Dotterel is a UK bird I gather so finding one here in the states at an estate sale I guess is betting on very low odds.

“Dotterel Counterfeit”

Thought the outside small covet feather of an American woodcock had a nice beige tint and thought it might sub well for a Dotterel feather but I was wrong. The barring mark come out too pronounced on the closeup. Oh well. Hook. ...... Tiemco102Y sz 17 Thread ..... Pearsall’s gossamer yellow Hackle ....
