You need to find a dead bird. Then take it to the F&W office and provide them with a location as to where you found it. They will examine it and either give you a permit or if fowl play (see that?) is suspected they will deny the permit.

Then take it to a bird taxidermist with the permit and away you go.

Great work and the mounts aren't overwhelmed by the accessory foliage, which seems to be rare.

Hope you enjoy them. (sorry if you have already seen some of these on my Facebook page).
More feathers this time than fur... but the next batch will even it out, stay tuned.

Adult male Goshawk.







adult female grey Gyr falcon: (a very lucky find)







Rough legged hawks chasing each other:







and the last one is an Adult female White Gyr falcon.
Gyr falcons are the biggest falcons in the world and can be found in southern Alberta mostly but in Grey Phase. This White one is THE FIRST documented adult White Gyr falcon in southern Alberta, found close to Medicine Hat.
It will go for public display in Med Hat as well... (of course it will go under glass case).









found this post while I was looking up Alberta falcons, Ive seen a white Gyr 2 days in a row now in the Vauxhall area. dont have a camera at the moment but when I get a new one I will try to get some shots .
