Don't you just love it when they cup up and drop in!! After my cataract surgery, Doc said no wood working so I was able to complete a few other things. Next appt tomorrow and hopefully I'll be released!

2019 Miller mallard head cupped.webp
 
Nice! I love watching ducks skate to a landing. I want to get some decent photos sometime of that, just haven't put in the time down by the ponds around here.
 
I've been remiss -(i've been lots of other things - but we won't talk about that!) - I have not mentioned how much I like the mount!

Why thank you Mike. There are 2 more mounts that go with this one. Another drake mallard cupped up hard with head up attitude and a drake mottled that will be sliding in from the side. They are working and not complete yet. Trying to get the sandhill crane, flying turkey and a strutting turkey completed and out the door first. That will free up considerable room for me.

Oh and the eye doc cleared me for anything. The right eye cataract is gone and healed. Tested for distance at 20/20 in the right eye, 20/60 in left.
At 16" reading I'm 20/20 in both.. but the new right eye doesn't read as clearly as my old left.

It's sawdust time!!
