Very simple tying Using 8/0 Olive Thread (Waxed) for the body ,Tie in the CDC with the tips facing forward (Like a shuttlecock) trim the waste then fold the CDC tips back and tie down with lots of thread to give the little head.

Some tyers use dear hair along with CDC but I prefer it like this.

Easy.

I will do a step by step when I get a camera with a decent Macro.
