Default Feather Duster on the Block. Bottle Stopper

Here is my attempt at a Rooster on the Block, inspired by "waitpinga whittler" on here.

It is my first whittling attempt and it came from a branch of a shrub in my front garden.

I turned him into a bottle Stopper as well as a future feather duster

Welcome to the forum! If you are into carving tree branches look up the book "Whittling Twigs and Branches" by Chris Lubekeman. It's excellent and he teaches you how to carve some really neat roosters!
