Ben Rue Bluebill
This interesting drake bluebill from Locustville near Wachapreague on the Eastern Shore of Virginia is similar to carvings done by Charles Birch. It appears to be 100 years old and has areas worn to bare wood, wear from use and a small amount of wood rot on one side. It retains the original sheet lead ballast weight and measures about 14” l.
