Default Great blue heron
I thought the other heron turned out pretty good so I thought I would carve one for myself to have around my home. I didn't paint it, I wanted it to match the other carvings in my yard. I burnt some of the lower areas and the head feathers with a tourch, than stained with a UV protection sealer.
