Put some finish on it and make a piece of wall hanging art.

This takes "bird peck" to a whole new level. Do the eyes follow you as you walk around? :D

What you really should do is find out who the ad agency is that puts together those ads and sell it to them. They could have a lot of fun with it in an upcoming clip. Think big $$$$. As my dad would say about an opportunity like this is “it’s a bird-nest on the ground”.

You might want to carefully cut the head out and carve a whole bird.

Not to cast stones, but you really should identify the picture source. Or at least mention that it is not yours.

Alternative Source?

Circulating on Facebook. Forwarded to me by a friend. Post dated 25 March by Richard Huff in a group called "Country by Choice and Heart." Don't know if it is his original photo or not. No other information known to me.

Sorry, Garth.

Yonak

Sorry, Garth. It was just a joke. I got it in an e-mail. I don't know the source.

I don't know where it started but that same picture was shared by several people I know on facebook.

I sheathed the whole interior of my house,including ceilings with #5 pine 1"x10". That stuff has some interesting knots.

Yonuck- No problem. That was pretty much my assumption, that you were just sharing a cool picture. But I felt the thread was going somewhat off track with people assuming that you were in possession of that board. Maybe I was too blunt, but felt that folks in general needed a reminder to credit sources. We're all good.

Just don't install it opposite your bed as a piece of wall art, or you'll wake up from dreams in which you're abducted and forced to assemble particleboard furniture.

Dreams

or worse, that you've been forced to drive around in a lemon yellow 50 year old Plymouth Duster dragging a 3' key that's far to big to open any door!

Got an outhouse door at my cabin made out of rough cut spruce. There’s a Wookiee, 2 seals and a wolf that I look at every time I use it. Makes me smile. They only seem to appear late in the evening after a few beers though.

Somewhere...

John in NM

I still have a collection of laughing rocks that I picked up in the desert on various college field trips and during summer jobs (replacing claim posts, surveying, etc). The rocks were saying "you need water and we don't!" Hate to think what they might have said after a few beers! :D

Regardless of where that came from that is just to funny.

Working for a lumberyard many years ago I remember certain carpenters would sort through the interior doors to make sure there wasn't any "spooks" on them.
