Deciding not to let his bones go to waste I moved him to the back yard & left him out in the sun to dry out & let the ants have their way with him.
This is where he lives now.
Deconstructed his skeleton & feathers plucked. Some bones were so brittle that they crumbled instantly.
He was boiled for a few seconds to soften the decomposed tissue that remained on his skull & ribcage. The tissue was scraped off with a razor blade.
Cleaned.
I wired him back together as best I could.
I probably should have looked up the anatomy of a bird prior to doing this… His breastbone is the wrong way around!
