I'd bet a good taxidermist could still fix it up. Nice bird BTW! 10 years ago I shot one up here late season in North TX. Still kickin' myself in the butt for grillin' it instead.

Its missing some feathers though is my main concern, thought maybe a dead mount Idk, was pretty beat up about it this morning but I guess its better then not shooting one at all lol, maybe Jeremy holmes will chime in here, he has one of my birds already.

Get him in a standing pose! I think the standing poses are nicer anyways. Either way! Awesome bird! I got my first fully plumed BWT 2 weeks ago! So gorgeous!!!
