New abodes for the birds...


I've begun the painstaking task of backing and mounting
my large 'Sanctuary' birds for framing, here is
'Flaming Flamingo' on her back


'Ellis' Paradise' on her back with the beginnings
of her mounting 'armatuer' - to enable the
delicate tail to be raised off the mounting board...


The Kingfishers 'Halcyone & Ceyx' are ready for mounting


 'Flaming Flamingo' on her mount in amongst the
chaos, 'Major Tom' wrapped ready for the framer
and 'Last Gasp' on the wall awaiting the finishing touches
