Description
Vintage pair of Prairie Chicken game birds mounted on wood base with driftwood and habitat. This adult male and female taxidermy showcases the beauty of this species.
Prairie Chickens are a chunky game bird with a small head, chubby body, short legs and short tail. The adult male features a barred brown and white plumage and the females a lighter brown and white with dark eyeline and pale throat. During courtship the males raise the feathers on the sides of their neck, exposing the orange air sacs which they inflate to create a booming sound to attract females.
Prairie-chickens forage by slowly walking through grasslands and brush, hunting insects and pecking for seeds and grains, sometimes climbing into vegetation to obtain fruit and buds. They can fly strongly for considerable distances between roosting and feeding areas. Courtship displays are famously acrobatic, particularly when females are in attendance.
Condition
Good condition, some light ruffling to feathers and dust.
