Default Back from the Taxidermist!

Got one of my birds back the other day. This one is a Merriam and the one still due is a Rio, both shot this past spring in Nebraska. Can't wait for next spring!
Thanks for looking.

Good looking mount, is the rio a full mount too? I have a full Osceola, not strutting, thinking of getting a rio full mounted strutting.

Thanks, Man. Yep, the Rio is getting the full strut mount as well. My wife isn't going to be overly thrilled.

Sometimes I think a lot of us are married to the same lady! Great bird. Be sure to post some pics when you get the other back!

Good Looking Tom there Vann! That fella does very nice work. I'm a little anxious myself to pick up some handiwork from a fella down in Ga. Congrats!
