Not a Parker bird yet a 12 gauge Thompson Center New Englander muzzleloader kill. Mounted by noted Atlantic salmon carver Gene Bahr of Sebago. Very memorable hunt, was the last of eight gobblers called in that fine May morning in the early 1990s and all eight were passed on by my hunting buddy Ed because he wanted to see me smoke one!

Here are a few birds that are not exactly what might be considered mounts but a wonderful 2 framed displays I found in an antique store.
I was told these are over 100 years old and they still look nice.
Using water colors and actual feathers they make a wonderful display.
I hope to find an artist to help me do some Mearns quail this coming year.
