The blue breasted kingfisher from Africa. The item sold on the first day, and was bought by (and for) the Natural History Museum in Inishowen, County Donegal.

This piece feature on the Great Irish Game fair as a display item to show people that taxidermy doesn't always have to be ugly, stiff or creepy. During this fair I also held demonstrations. On Saturday I worked on a red-leg partridge, and on Sunday I worked on a wee female Kestrel.

~To whom it may concern, (please read before accusing me of anything!)
The animal used in this project died a natural cause. None of the animals I work on are killed for the purpose of taxidermy alone and most are found along side the road or come from bird/animal breeders in the area.
