spanielman2150 0 Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 i bought this stuffed bird at a second hand auction and i thought it was an unusual item The bird as you can see has plumes at both sides of its head and has very long legs suggesting it to be a wader type bird but the feet are not webbed. The colouration is speckled on the back of what looks to be brown and white on the chest and plumes The mount has faded slightly as it is very old Any information would be greatly appreciated Quote Link to post Share on other sites
