re: Anyone here carve decoys?

Never carved decoys, but I've carved a ton of wooden lures. Your first ones will look like shite. Just keep at it.
My advice:
Start simple, don't go all crazy detailed on the first ones
Watch videos on YouTube
There's some very good books on decoy carving, I have one by LeMaster that's pretty good.
Patterns are out there for different ducks that you can buy
Find someone who knows and get them to teach you and critique your decoys
To me it's a very relaxing activity.

Been interested in doing this too. I have some big 8"x8"x48" blocks of cedar. Any advice on using or not using cedar?
