HEHEHEH,Jim, Oh My, and here I thought Thomp was calling us Ol Buzzards.
Maybe he patterned it of of themthere politicians ya think?
me wonders why they call them politicians as they sure aren't versed in what is going on. Kind of like their heads be stuck somewheres for sure.

Thomas .. from what I can see .. your coming along great on that buzzard ..

I remember years ago I saw a poster that had these two type of buzzrads on a tree branch and one was saying to the other
"I dont know about you , but I have got to kill something "

Great job so far ...

ok now,
im ugly old wrinkled and when im outside and a buzzard flys over my wife tells me to run and get inside the house cuz the buzzards hunting me,
but i have cracked all the mirrors in the house, and getting a drink of water is like a sneak attack...

gene it was Patients my A#$ im gonna kill something!, that was on the buzzard. i remember.

as i said i broke the neck, drilled through to the back then drilled with the neck in place from the back into the head, placed in a skewer, and thought i glued it but, the head tilts if you want it turned, great expression, but i'd advise to leave the neck for last as the grain runs top to bottom, ...

paint?
i know it will kick it up a knotch in details, but im not ready to paint yet, thinking im gonna send a busshel basket full of these things to my sister she loves to paint... i like the chip making of it all

Hey Thomp, the carving looks great so far. Was I ever surprised when it came up. When I saw the title "OLD BUZZARD" I thought to myself, how'd he get a picture of my little Mrs. and then when I saw the bird, I was relieved for sure.
