<DIV>I've found a good location for bird's legs, and other stuff, in Big
Dogs catalog. hehehe </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Actually, there was a fellow at the Dayton Show who had very detailed
patterns of all types of birds complete with dimensions in different poses. Not
having an interest in carving realistic birds I never took this fellow's card.
Perhaps someone on the List was at the show and took his card? Each bird pattern
was a whole packet if information, I talked with him. All those patterns were
his own original designs. They looked awesome.</DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Matt,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> I have carved several
songbirds and have been reluctant to attach the legs because I am not sure
of the proper location. I have looked in all my books and no one gives any
info on how to properly locate them on the body. I thought Wildfowl Carving
& Collecting once had an article about this, but I've not located the
source. It's 65 miles one way to the nearest library that has study skins,
so wanted to try some other resource before spending the time and gas to do
that.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Do you know of any source for the info I need?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thank you,</FONT></DIV>
