Good luck to all the ruffed grouse hunters today! It's going to be hot this month so stay cool, eat your September birds, and start looking for a good bird for taxidermy next month. We have until January 1st so there is no rush.

Another riveting dog retrieved project coming up...

Just a handful of 2022 birds left... including this damaged ruffed grouse.

Ring-necked pheasant

Common (black) scoter. First for me! And hard to photograph.

Gotta love a natural seam. 🙄

Fun with pastels

I filled the wall back up last week. Thanks to everyone picking up it's mostly empty again.

"My dog has a soft mouth." And your duck has soft skin. 🙄 Hand retrieve if you're after a trophy.

Taxidermists can smell this picture. That's an scoter. IYKYK

Scaled quail. Who wants to groom it? 🤪

08/17/2024

Now that's a tail.

"I bet you eat all that free meat."
No, no I don't. I have no idea how you treated your bird and I use a lot of borax while skinning so no way I'm eating your bird. Especially when they look like this one. 🤢

It's one of the things I dislike the most about taxidermy - throwing the meat away. I'm not a USDA inspected facility so I can't return your meat, either.

I spent a few days presenting info on getting a bird to the taxidermist and helping the kitchen crew from The Michigan Upland Experience at a ruffed grouse event put on by which was a veterans hunting fundraiser. If you'd like more info on Operation Aspen Thunder please contact Mark at bdmgundogs @ gmail.com Thank you to everyone who attended, sponsored, and donated!

I have so much to tell you but I have two major points today. First, this is the work of my friend, Jim Unrath. Jim won third at the World Taxidermy Competition! However, Jim suffered a stroke when he got home and now is in recovery. Please say a prayer for him as he patiently waits to get back to his birds. Second, a huge congratulations to all of my friends who competed. One even won best in world! I'm so proud of all of you and I wish I could have been there. Why I wasn't will be another post so stay tuned for that fantastic news, too.

Yesterday's mallard

Young mallard. Next post will be of it mounted.

08/09/2024

There might be a ticket left for the Bonasa Bonanza! Lots of great presentations and hands on training. I'll be there talking about taxidermy.

08/08/2024

All the best to my friends competing at World's this week! I wish I was there with you.

08/07/2024

Save the date for this important event!

08/06/2024

Just to be clear, a wood duck coming out this well is rare for me. I think it's fair to be honest about my abilities.

08/02/2024

Back to prepping skins with this weather. 🙄 I'm prepping birds that came in Dec '22. Thank you for your continued patience.

08/01/2024

I love when I send a dead mount home (on a piece of scrap plywood) and the client makes their own base. Every one is so unique. Thanks for the photo, Dale!

07/31/2024

I'm a big fan of a dead mount on weathered barnwood.

🥺 I love #woodcock but they can be very frustrating. Even when you bring in multiple birds it's not a guarantee you'll get a mount back. So, did I save this one? @nnbirdtaxidermy #nnbirdtaxidermy

Updates! I'm working on birds that came in Oct. 2022. I'll call ya when yours is ready. @nnbirdtaxidermy #nnbirdtaxidermy

1. Please stop trespassing on our property. I do contact law enforcement. 2. Things to look for on a bird you'd like to have taxidermied. Damage dictates pose! @nnbirdtaxidermy #nnbirdtaxidermy

Bohemian waxwings, like nearly every species of bird, are protected (search for the Migratory Bird Treaty Act list). Fortunately, this window casualty should have a second life in education. Checkout those wings!

What is that?! My best guess is this bird was previously injured and the body walled off the infection. There appeared to be feathers in the dark yellow squishy (yet firm) stuff. Any other guesses? Photos in comments.

Nice mallard with some action @nnbirdtaxidermy

One of our dogs had a seizure early this morning. This is video near the end of it. He scared both of us but minutes later he was fine. He went to the vet and will be observed unless they increase in frequency, duration, or intensity. No meds at this time. So aside from the chaos of the holidays I'll be focusing on this guy a bit more than usual. On the bright side, there will be a bunch of birds ready in early January despite not getting quite through the ones that came in December 2021. 😕 Anyway, if you made it this far, thanks for reading and your patience. @nnbirdtaxidermy #nnbirdtaxidermy #birddog #gwp #seizure
