Rail Birds
As a New Jersey native I am well steeped in traditions of rail bird hunting. It is a "Gentlemen's" hunt in the truest form of the word. Poling a 100 year old wooden rail bird skiff instantly takes you back to another time.
Whether it is Sora rail in the rice, or Clapper rails (Marsh Hen's) in the Meadows, you'll be hard-pressed to find a more enjoyable way to spend an afternoon.
These experiences are the inspiration for the work you see below.
