Results of a trip to Argentina a few years back. The plan is to now take pecke cypress and build a shadowbox/bar using them as the centerpiece. I need better lighting to show the true beauty of these birds but for now these pics will have to do..

How did you get it mounted? As in... was it done in Argentina or did you bring them back?

How did you get it through customs?

Had them mounted in the states, from what I have seen NEVER get anyting mounted in Argentina if you want it to look decent. Also the shipping to get something mounted back in the states is VERY high.

I got them back in my carry on as they were confiscating luggage that had game in them and not giving anything back when I went. So I put them in my carry on and managed to get them through but it got VERY hairy upon arriving back in the states and that turns into a VERY long story but I managed to get them home and now they are where they were meant to be.

Those look great. My buddy did a Nicaragua hunt last January and piled up some serious bluewing teal along with a few pins, wigeon, etc. If you're really, really lucky every now and then a cinny shows up in La ponds.
