Bird mounts to RAM grand opening

[Art of Taxidermy]

Hi all,
these birds are done for public display and you can view them after grand opening of the new Royal Alberta Museum in Edmonton.
Unfortunatley , I didn't get to do any habitat or diorama for any of them since they will be displayed as part of a bigger scene in the exhibition rooms in the museum..
these were fun projects and unique to their own.
hope you enjoy.
Cheers
Ben.

This is a white faced Ibis.









this is a black necked Stilt:







and the story of the wild, the strong survives and the weak dies.. so basically the younger and weaker baby is about to dehydrate and die,, while the bigger and stronger baby pelican thrives to eat more and gets bigger and healthier.. thats the story they are trying to depict;
