wildfowler.250 Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 Can anyone recommend a good bird taxidermist? (ideally in Scotland but I suppose I could post the bird...it's currently in the freezer atm). It would also be good if the person recommended had a website so that I could see his work Any input is greatly appreciated! ATB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
