Sorry about the non Taxidermy related post, but I wanted to thank all my customers and commission lists for their patience with work progress.
This year has been a long one, working around shows, heatwaves and most importantly my health. But after a successful surgery I've finally got some answers, and hoping to return to my normal working schedule in 5-6 weeks once I've had the sign off and no longer in rest and healing.
I assure all commissions, that your works are safely in storage, and I will resume them promptly once back to a standard to do them justice.

I adored working on this buzzard, and the dynamic pose which was requested! Sadly this bird was found at the base of a tree on the finders farm deceased. Upon examination it was clear the bird was very malnourished, and had a broken neck and hemorrhage of the skull. It's quite plausible that in its weakened state it unfortunately made a fatal error and collided with the tree.
This bird was a real challenge to work with, not only for the requested pose, but because the bird was moulting at the time of its passing, meaning lots of pin feathers to contend with!

This distinctive male Greater Spotted Woodpecker was a commission for a returning client, sadly the poor bird collided with a greenhouse. Despite having incredibly strong beaks and jaws - which allows for the distinctive pecking sounds and foraging, collisions with windows and buildings is a common cause of death for woodpeckers.

September brings the beginnings of autumn, but brilliant colour can still be found🌈 Two stunning melanistic cross male pheasants, squaring up to each other adds a real sense of movement, the perfect statement piece as autumn draws in πŸ‚

I absolutely loved working with this very special female Sparrowhawk! This individual falls into the less than 10% of wild female Sparrowhawk's which display characteristically male plumage and colouration despite having a larger female size (darker slate blue tones over the back and wings, and classic peachy/rust patches on the cheeks and breast). Ornithologists believe this phenomenon happens in older birds as female hormone levels drop, causing a rise in testosterone and therefore male traits!
I also really enjoyed creating the little Sparrow 'Dead mount' to give this piece a bit of extra excitement.
My next show is the Ashby Show this Sunday the 14th July, hopefully I'll see some of you there!

I thought I'd finally put a face to the name, I'm Emily of Crow's Nest Treasure! I really don't have many photos of myself as I tend to avoid cameras at all costs. But this is me, and I hope to see many of you in person over my summer show season, where you can enjoy and hopefully support my small business πŸ’œ
I'll be at The Dark Arts Market both Saturday and Sunday this weekend 29/30th june
