Made a decoy today, I printed off a poster crane and mounted it to some corrugated plastic. I'll spray some Polly over it too, I have two more Poses I'll do. We use big white birthday balloons for swan. ------------- Remember: Four boxes keep us free ,the soap box, the ballot box, the jury box, AND the cartridge box |

It's a program to make posters. I takes 21 sheets of printer paper to do one side of the crane, It is the same on the other side. https://www.blockposters.com/" rel="nofollow - https://www.blockposters.com/ ------------- Remember: Four boxes keep us free ,the soap box, the ballot box, the jury box, AND the cartridge box |

I gave then a coat of mat clear coat to help with the weather. Some key feathers, they look better as a pair.   I can make something like a crane sound with the box turkey caller. Now we just add cranes... ------------- Remember: Four boxes keep us free ,the soap box, the ballot box, the jury box, AND the cartridge box |
