A narrow check runs the length of the lower left side and there is a small area of roughness to the edge of tail. Very minor roughness to right edge of bill. Elegant, long bodied decoy with a high arched back form, so-called "snakey head" model. A very desirable example of this hard to locate species by Mason.
