It was fun to finally get to mount one of these after all these years.  This Female is currently on display at the Kalispell Tribe learning center.

There's something you don't see every day.
Very well done, John and Co.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Very nice work John! I get calls to mount those every winter and unfortunately people don't realize that they are protected. They think just because they found it dead in there yard they can bring them in and we'll mount it up for them. Sadly they go to waist. Beautiful bird and beautiful mount!

That's like a dream mount there.  What an opportunity for you to get to do that.

Beautiful bird.  We have a red-tailed hawk you can do for Weathergirl's school if you are interested.
