6-7 April 2010
Some time in March I was given a beautiful Kingfisher by Lucy Strachan. She found the little fellow on the grounds walking through the forest.
Because of its beauty and being so small I was very worried to preserve the Kingfisher. So, through the internet, I contacted David Leggett at Wild Art to ask if he would train me how to taxidermy this beautiful bird. So we had two intense days of working together. David very patiently and methodically explained everything that I need to know of how to operate a bird. And I can say I succeeded I learned how to taxidermy and now I have a beautiful in-flight Kingfisher in my studio.
