I thought I had asked on here previously but couldn't find the thread. Is anyone in AL going to do a better job than Wings Over Water? Open to suggestions and willing to spend the money. Thanks gents!

I looked at some more national studios like duxrus and bird man studios but they’re full. Another Alabama taxidermist, Shane something I think, was also full but well regarded. I’ll maybe try some of them next year if I get any new species I want to mount. Seeing some mallards, geese and mergansers and will try to get one of each for the wall.
