Fantastic,I hope whoever is paying for it is digging deep!

I've always loved those markings you find on certain birds,a kind of blue'ish
charcole peppering around the back and head.Hard to explain in words but very distictive on dark coloured birds.It's gonna look fantastic in a good frame with tinted border.

That's really cool, Tony!!

The owner should be proud to display it.

Thanks!
I've got as close I can to the colour of the mount (it's not quite right) to give an idea of how it looks mounted. I had a choice of this one or white with a black line on the inside edge. I think the white one just didn't look right, especially with the background being so light.
As for digging deep, it's that accursed friends and family thing...

Oh well, maybe one of 'their' friends will see it and order something from you for which you can make 'them' dig deep!
