With its head slightly turn this carving measures 8 ½" tall by 12" long by 12 ½ between the webbed feet. Underneath the feet is the pencil inscription, Bufflehead Duck, Don Walters, 1980. I was able to find where Don Walters exhibited in the World Championships of carvers between the years 1978 and 1980. Any information after that is difficult to find. Needless to say examples of is exceptional carved and painted ducks are very rare.
You can see every detail in the photographs, including what is an old repair to one of the spurs on the duck's leg.
