If you go to their catalog or shop through their site, you'll find different kits and carving supplies. CWW = cedar wax wing. I got that kit and loved it. I've ordered one of thier lesser yellowlegs kits and am waiting for it now.

The cedar wax wing and the bohemian wax wing are different sizes, the cedar wax wing is smaller. I think I posted this information earlier, but Sugar Pine had a great looking kit for carving the Bohemian Wax wing, never looked to see if there was a kit for the Cedar Wax Wing.

There's a pattern for a cedar wax wing smack dab in the middle of my living room picture window.
Want me to trace it for you? I guess there are no Darwin Awards for birds.

As a bird lover, I find that comment very sad. It's not the birds fault.

Too true, Michelle. If my windows were tilted downwards, they would reflect the ground and I believe there would be fewer bird strikes. Normally, I don't have the dining room curtains open, I don't want the birds to think(?) that they can fly right through the house.
