I've got a really nice Canadian that I want to mount. Any suggestions on a pose?

I've never mounted a bird before and was wondering if theres a taxidermy website that showed poses and such.

Any help would be appreciated.

A mount where you can see the wings. As if he was taking off or landing in. I got a mallard at the taxidermist thats gonna look like this.

I just dropped my green head off yesterday... But he is just going to be the standard flying on the wall... I really like that landing mount though... That is a sweet... But my duck is missing some chest feathers, so I better just stick with this on this one... but my next will be like that for sure... I am going to my dogs first duck mounted as well... Can't wait till Sept...

I saw a flying goose mount that looked real neat once. I thought the first one I get mounted I might get like that.

I think the sentry pose is awesome for a big canada.

Ive got a mallard that I had mounted, in a pose of landing with wings out and cupped, feet down, and head looking to its right. Also with a piece of driftwood and come cattails in the back ground. Looks Awesome.

I like the flying or locked up mounts a lot, and the take off/landing mounts. But a BIG sentry goose is always awesome too.
