I have mounted a mallard duck before but this will be my first crow. Can any one tell me are they similar in mounting.

Easier to mount

Does this mean less work then? Less time on the brass brush will not hurt my feelings.

Bob, The crow is basicaly the same job as a duck. Less oil but still you will have to degrease like the duck. Birds are birds and all are similar in mounting with some adjustments for size and pose. Enjoy, Aaron H.

May look a bit worse that a Pinned duck if its an early season kill. Just my 2cents worth. I mounted one for the KC Cabelas store a few years back that was pinned out. I wasn't all that pleased with it. But then, I guess they were. So what the heck.
