I sent him a bird the other day and after the second call he answered no problem. You can also message him from his facebook page, Avian Arts.

Depends on your location, but FF/Birdman (Paul) here on the THF has pretty fast turn around and does excellent work. He is in Mansfield.

Good taxidermist aren't fast in my experience. You want stunning work that will last for years or you want fast and cheap? Those typically don't go hand in hand. Stick with Pat, it'll be worth the wait...I promise, that dude is an artist.

Pat usually has to stop taking birds around this time of year to keep his turnaround manageable. I have had birds done by Pat and FF/Birdman. If you can’t get it done at Avian arts, FF/Birdman is your guy. His turnaround is pretty quick as he is a retired fireman and takes in birds as more of a hobby. You wont be disappointed in his quality. PM me if you want any more info.

For an extra $150 Pat will turn it around in 90 days.

Pat did finally contact me, he apparently was out of town. He did point out that my birds had a couple of weeks to go to have been a year, So,, I stand corrected and will get back in line..He should leave a message saying he is out of town though..haha.. PS,, a lot of us older fellows do not use facebook..
