Mother Nature's Beauty- The Jungle Cock Cape



Many of the feathers and materials we tie with are extremely beautiful, but none more so than the Jungle Cock. The markings, with the golds, yellows and blacks are astonishing.

Always a pleasure to pull this out and look and use it.

Saturday River Sightings


A pretty rare sight for our river, not many down by the ditch. Alway like to see our four legged friends.
Very shaggadelic this time of year as they loose their winter coats.
Can't leave out our other favorite river friend, Mr. Rainbro
