I thought the guy did a pretty good job all things considered. I might just have to bid just for the novelty of it..

Of course I could always do it myself.. But I bet it is a pain in the tuckuss.

Ivory billed woodpecker

We live 4 miles from the Arkansas border and the local news and CNN just announced that they have seen an Ivory billed woodpecker in Arkansas,got it on video, so maybe there is a labrador duck lurking out there somewhere!

You;r in the USA and you made it out of duck feathers [4 kinds]
;do you have paper work to go with it?

I did not make it, I just found it.

I thought and think it is neat someone could do that. Looks like they used parts of a muscovie and a white run of the mill Easter duck. So how would they prove what parts they used?

Yes I used 4 different kinds of ducks (non-migratory, domestic ducks) so paper work is not an issue. I also had to do extensive dying, etc, to even get close to making this bird happen. And I guess I can't prove what types of ducks I used other than if someone wanted to really see what I used, I have a HUGE! heap of bird parts and feathers from all the birds in my freezer. Nothing more difficult than to have a pile of modified bird parts and have to "frankenstein" an extinct duck together,lol.

Thanks for the concern,
