The Albert Laing Brant decoy and Zack

 

Zack seems to have found a new friend and power-napping companion in the Albert Laing snuggle head brant decoy which I got last year.

According to decoy collector Ron Swanson, who researched and wrote the major article on Laing for DECOY Magazine (July/August 1995), it was likely made in the 1830s, and may be the earliest Albert D. Laing decoy to survive.

I hope Zack appreciates his pillow.
