This juvenile Rainbow Lorikeet (trichoglossus moluccanus) was found deceased in the middle of a road in January 2025. They had sustained trauma to the head, causing a dislocated mandible and a fragile cranium.

As a juvenile, they still displayed their developing features, dark brown eyes and the beak beginning to shift from dark colours to the beautiful orange. We chose to preserve them in this life stage as a juvenile Rainbow Lorikeet.  

The head and face have been mounted acceptably; however the body displays areas we feel could be refined further. This mount represents another step in our ongoing taxidermy journey, and we've gained valuable insight into how to create more anatomically realistic body flow in future pieces. 

Because of this, we are offering the lorikeet at a discounted price. They sit nicely on a flat surface atop the piece of wood. We hope they may find a loving home where they can be appreciated for their unique character and story.

This is a male Australian Wood Duck (chenonetta jubata), recovered after being found deceased on the roadside in July 2024. He showed signs of trauma with blood present around the nostrils and beak. During preparation, we discovered a complete fracture across the nasal bridge, severing the beak from the skull just above the orbits. We hope his passing was quick and without suffering. The skull was carefully repaired, along with reconstruction of the torn left eyelid. Although the injury is not visible from the outside, it remains an important part of his story.

This duck was our first attempt at a waterfowl mount. He is not perfect, but he displays beautifully atop a vintage cupboard or shelf. An imperfect yet meaningful piece that carries both history and character. We hope he may find a peaceful forever home.
