I don't believe we have met and I know I have not mounted any birds for you. Could you please elaborate on the negative feed back. I am just curious since I don't know you.

Applequacks,
When I sent the bird into pat at avian arts he advised me would look at the bird, and If it was worth mounting, he would mount it. After recieving the bird, pat called and advised me it is a mature with very few pinfeathers and should be mountable. Pat wouldn't even take a deposit until he mounted the bird. I can assure you he is not doing the bird just because he is short on cash or short on work. We have spoke on the phone several times about the bird and when you see the finished product I'm sure you will be impressed

I doesn’t matter what anyone thinks, it is your bird you will look at it every day and remember the day afield you shot a banded blue wing.

Just got a call from Pat at Avian Arts and my bird is done. I could not be more happy with the outcome. The bird looks phenomenal. I would highly recommend Pat to anyone.  I am definetly proud of this guy and glad I decided to get him mounted.

I thought you were crazy when you said you were getting it mounted, and I am glad I kept my mouth shut.
It looks great and shows off the teal how they look when we actually hunt them.
Congrats!
