Bird, Duck and Waterfowl Tips
Field Care: Without a doubt proper
field care will determine the quality of your finished mount. When
collecting waterfowl in the field your normally shooting it with a shotgun
so try to select a bird that has the least amount of damage. Check feet,
bill and spread wings to make sure your bird is not missing feathers.
While in the field protect your selected waterfowl by placing it head
first down a pair of old panty hose. The panty hose will do a great job of
holding feathers in place to reduce damage. Wrap your bird in two plastic
bags and seal them very tightly. Freeze the bird as soon as possible. Keep
the bird on ice, but do not get it wet until freezing is possible.
Collect Good Waterfowl and Bird Reference:
One of the most valuable things you can do to perfect your bird and
waterfowl taxidermy skills is to study live birds as much as possible. You
can start by collecting photos from bird and waterfowl magazines. If you
have a local zoo, go study the live birds. The most successful bird and
waterfowl taxidermist in the world have bird aviaries at the shop or home
to study their own collection of live birds. Taking the time to study
birds, ducks and waterfowl references will be a huge factor in your
becoming a true master at bird taxidermy.
