Well, it only took two and half years, but it's finally back. Sorry for the cell phone pic, I really need a new camera.

Lose the wallpaper border. LOL. That's my mom's house, as these were mounted back in Arkansas. I killed them before I moved to Texas, so this was when I went back to get them. I agree and I don't have wallpaper border in my house.

Great looking mount, why 2 1/2 years? Because the guy back in my hometown is slow as hades. He does a great job but it takes him forever. This is the last mount that I will take to him.

Very nice mounts. I was consistantly getting specks a few years back and kept thinking well I'll just get one mounted next year. Well I didnt shoot one the last two seasons. I think I know what I have to do this year.
Dear Lord please bullwhip me for saying this but I agree, Marcstar is in the lead. Please nobody use this as a quote!!!

Even if that were true (which would be a first for me) and with that in mind the birds bills were painted after the fact.

That's sweet! Great looking mount and the speck standing really has some super dark markings which I do like on Specks.

Looks great, only thing I would change is put the one with the better markings in the flying pose to show off the colors better

But after two years, the taxidermist forgot and I wasn't there to remind him. The older speck has some great markings. Here the day I killed them in Stuttgart. That mature sure did have some nice markings. I love how the waders make me look like a midget.

Nice mount though. The way you tell is shake the birds after you shoot them
