Hey Michelle, maybe sometime you'd let me come down and help out if you need it.   :)

I wouldn't mind assisting a taxidermist and get a little hands-on experience. I think it would be fun, and I'm not afraid of some hard work.

Great job on the turkey!  I agree with one of the posts that most wildlife has natural "flaws" in fur and feathers.  So much taxidermy tries to achieve a perfection that doesn't exist in nature...unless this turkey has a brush and mirror on its nightstand, this is probably how it would look in flight.  The only thing that stood out right away to me is where the neck met the cape.  Other than that...helluva job.
