Common Eider Competition Mount
« on: June 13, 2010, 09:10:42 PM »
Hi all, thought I would share a couple pictures of my Eider I competed with at the Idaho show.  This bird was shot on the Atlantic out of Massachusetts.  I really liked the way this one turned out.  It will definitely go in my Gallery room.  Hope you enjoy the pic's.  John
