A pair of Teal, mounted on a piece of driftwood with the male standing over the resting female.
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 were legal quarry. 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.

This is my line, this is eternal
How did I end up here?
Discarnate, preternatural
My prayers to disappear
Absent of grace, marked as infernal
Ungranted in dead time left me disowned
