Be Glad you got that deer on a plaque, that particular mannikin is hard to balance on the wall without a shoulder panel, i mounted one on that same manikkin and it almost killed me, I got my forehead split in two with the antlers, it is very unbalanced without the panel..
To be truthful I don't like the squirrel, I think the taxidermist could have done a betetr Job on that tail.
The Deer looks Good.

yea our grey squirrel is the common brown grey squirrel, have never seen the red or solid black fox squirrel around here, seen some in florida, but their i think are on the protected list.
