It's just great that you could find a head for a body by the same maker.. By the looks of the head, it may have begun life as a can. Keep searching, you may find a perfect match yet.
Nice gift!!!!
 
If you have, or can find Eugene Connets duck decoys and how to make them, he has several Boyle head designs, a few others too, most from the south shore. If you cant find the book, let me know, I can print out the head designs, they are just a profile for cutting out the blank, and no two people will finish them the same, but its a start in the right direction
