I would love to, except Harry passed away a few years ago. Nemours Plantation makes them and has done a few for other plantations

Macallan has sat up when outside and listened a couple times when a raucous hen has sounded off

but just now- some one down the road a ways fired a gun- one shot (its the last day of muzzleloader here)- far enough off to be well muffled- but -instantly - the whole group lifted off at the sound and headed up the field- maybe to the other neighbor's pond, or over the hill to the river.

There are a few out at Bennett's point and Annandale that build them as well. Not may people left that can with experience. Dying art for sure.

The manager at Annandale still build them. He built my three 20+ years ago when he was with DNR. Great guy but really busy these days managing for Dan Ray.
