Default Escaping Baby Chick

The Baby Chick just in time for Easter, He's 4 inches tall, Acrylic paint. I found a side view of him on Google Images per Claudes direction, just drew a circle over an oval for a front view and started whacking off wood. He was a lot of fun to carve. Comments welcome.
Thanks Claude for the help
Larry
