I just got done this for a customer, have to switch it over to the base that I made for him. I am federally licenesed to take in all migratory birds also, if anyone over here on the West side is looking for a bird taxidermist. I have a one year turn around, they will all be completed and returned with a simple base. If you want a habitat scenery or an out of the ordinary base it will be extra.
Hope you all enjoy the pictures as much as I enjoyed mounting it (just kidding there is at least 40 hours in that bird arranging feathers)

Really awesome job Joe. Looks like you have an eye for catching all the details. The feathers look really good, you did a good job putting them all in place. I can see that it would have taken you quite awhile to get them like that.

Very lifelike, which is probably the best compliment someone can give a taxi.

Damn Joe I missed this. It was funny listening to you on the phone telling me about all the time you put into the feathers
Great Job on that Turkey man!

Just think, another 20 of those turkey mounts and you'll have it down to 10 hours working over the feathers

I can't wait for the day that I can do a turkey in less than 30 hours. It was fun to do, but glad I only had one to do!!!!
