Ben is my opinion the best bird guy I have ever seen. Especially birds of prey. Great work

Guys chill out he just got here and tried to share some pics and you all jump all over him. Go out and get some fresh air. Some of you need it.

All the fish mounts I do are Replicas, its been years I said good bye to them.. in my opinion they don't stand a chance in compare to today's high detailed Replicas.
