Bill,

Four and twenty blackbirds, baked in a pie! Save a turkey...eat a crow! I've eaten plenty in my day...Laughing, ducking, and dodging!

Great looking fly...we all knew what you meant!

Nice pattern variation of a simple Partridge & Orange, I imagine the dubbing you added will definitely not detract from the action and will (or should) enhance the properties of the silk.
I like it and may start touch dubbing a few of my standard P&O's just to see if there is a difference in the decision making of local brown trout. :)

Ruard ~ "Eating crow" is a quaint American way of saying that you have done something to publically embarrass yourself and must, as punishment, dine on a common trash bird instead of enjoying tasty fowl.
