If you've harvested a bird you want mounted, Duckman provides specific handling instructions:

1. Field handling — Retrieve by bill or feet, avoid straps 2. Preparation — Wipe excess blood/water, wrap head and feet with wet paper towels 3. Freezing — Place in sealed bag with air removed, wrap with painter's tape 4. Shipping — Use FedEx or UPS on Mondays only. Include migratory bird tag and any mounting instructions 5. Arrival — Derek contacts you to discuss pose and base options, collects deposit, enters bird into schedule

A good bird mount starts with a great bird—proper field handling and freezing is critical to the final result.
