Green Winged Teal just finished
« on: August 05, 2009, 02:51:42 PM »
Hi All, I just got this little guy mounted up.  Sorry for the tape, he's still drying.  The Client wanted him mounted to show how fast they fly, just like when he shot it.  I don't know about you guy's, but sitting in a blind, I have never seen one of these guy's fly slow, I have the 100's of empty shell casings to prove it with very few Teal to show for it. :'( :'( ;)  Talk with you all soon.  John

Sweet.  Good job. :tup:

They do look like a blur sometimes.  And what about the sound they make as they cruise over the blind......sounds like a jet sometimes. :o
May I always be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.

Your absolutely right Curly.  It's funny but by the time you hear them, they are already out of gun range. ;)  Thanks Charlie.  John

John

I continue to be amazed at the realism you can put into your birds. Awesome job on that.
