A drake canvasback finished and ready to return. This bird was taken in October, which poses a big task for any taxidermist since a canvasback tends not to plume in until near Christmas ... dealing with pin feathers and limited plumage is always a task and we do our best to hide deficiencies and show what is best on the bird. I understand wanting the mount of a species we don't often get, no matter the time of year we can get it.
