The Kindness of Strangers

For no other reason than the fact he’s a nice guy, maodiver sent me a quart-sized bag full of woodduck flank feathers:

Going to have to up my game to do justice to feathers of this quality.

It’s random acts of senseless generosity like this that make participation on this forum so enjoyable. Again, Mike, thank you so much.

There was a reason. I appreciate all the SBS that you contribute to this site. They used to do one a week on the page, and that was one reason I joined as a NOOB lo those many years ago.

I won’t tie all the things you put up, I do not have the patience, skill, or time to do it…but a lot of them would work very well here in CA.

I received many of these kindnesses of which I am truly appreciative. Great people here.
Plus, I forgot to mention, all of the SBS fly patterns, which are appreciated by may people.

This is what makes this place so special to me!

Awesome gesture! Those SBS’s are very helpful and interesting to experience another tyer’s perspective. Enjoy reading them and using them as a guide for tying fun patterns!

Thank you!
