Visited a friend yesterday to do some bird hunting.
Andreas is a versaitile guy being a hunting guide, fishing guide,

fishing
camp owner and taxidermist.

I spoke to him about what he would want to be paid if I asked him to put
together a package of treated feathers for fly tying (cleaned, dried and
treated against bakterias and other small animals living among the
feathers).

This package would then contain half a female capercaillie (cut so that

half
the neck, half the body, a wing and half the tail would be included),

half a
female black grouse, a ptarmigan and a hazelhen.
None of these birds are in any way protected in Sweden..
He said that the work, if he could do 8 such packages would be at a cost

of
US$ 35.


Roger, I'd be interested in a package. Can pay you either in Euros or
dollars. Did your friend have an idea when he could get them ready by?

Ok JR,

That means the quota is filled and I can say go to my friend.
He talked about 2 weeks for drying the skins and then a couple of days to
treat them.

I will email all of the interested and ask for their postal addresses once
It is finished.

Ok, I got you marked for a package!

If there's still one available, save half of one for me too (assuming
someone wants to split one. Otherwise, I'll get a whole one.)
I'll pick it up this summer.

Ok!

I won't tell him to do your package until spring though.
Already had 8 orders, but as I see it you can have mine.
I can always shoot some more.
