I was digging through a pile of ducks in the freezer looking for one of my bluebills to mount and I came acroos this lil guy that I shot last fall,thought Id do him first since I dont have an upland bird on the wall yet.Pretty much done,Im considering putting some sage along the bottom edge of the walnut barnwood.What do you guys think?

The mount looks great!! I think some sage would be a great touch, It's pretty simple the way it is and I think it should stay that way, it's just a little too simple right now (In my opinion - As far as the mount goes it looks terrific though). Maybe just a small little bunch of sage.

Let us know what you do with it - And congrats, extraordinary work!

Nice Job! :thumb
I agree with Hound-hunter....Sage would look good or you could add some imitation aspen with the fall colors to kick it up some more. :-k
Eather way it will be a great additon to any room.

Sharps are so much fun to hunt but taste like crap. Your mount looks pretty good. Great job!

Looks good, yes I would add a little color and some sage or other brush to accent the mount. :thumb

Good looking mount. My opinion. A weathered split cedar fence post instead of the Walnut. Then the sage, How about some buffalo berry or russian olive. =D>
