Abstract:

Wood carvers along the waterways of eastern North Carolina have been using native birds as subjects for centuries, and today, interest in wildfowl carving is at an all time high. These skilled artisans produce works of great quality, but not great quantity, because of the time required in the creation of the finished product. Wiseman discusses the work of some of the carvers.
