White Tailed Eagle 'Haliaeetus Albicilla' Mounted on a Branch, 1959
About the Item
The White-Tailed Eagle (Haliaeetus albicilla) is a bird of prey that feeds itself mainly with fish, but it also hunts on birds, rabbits and hares. Sometimes the White-Tailed Eagle pirates food from other birds or otters. The body feathers of this species are greyish-brown and contrast with the pale head feathers that are almost white in older birds. The wedge-shaped tail feathers are white, the beak, legs and talons are yellow. One can find the White-Tailed Eagles across temperate Eurasia. The taxidermy sea eagle is mounted on a branch.

- Rowland Ward Antique Diorama of Full Mount Leucistic Badger 'Meles Meles'By Rowland WardLocated in Leuven , BEThe badger is an omnivorous mammal with short legs for digging. He has an elongated, weasel-like head with small ears. This specimen is a European badger or Meles meles and is bigger than his American counterparts. The female badger in the showcase has a deviation in its pigmentation, which the light spots on its coat can notice. Such an animal with partial loss of pigmentation is called leucistic. Unlike people with albinism who have no pigmentation, leucistic badgers don't have red eyes but black ones. The taxidermist who handled the animal was James Rowland Ward (London, 1848-1912). He learned the trade from his father and opened his own company, "Rowland Ward Limited" in London. He mainly made a name for himself with his taxidermy birds and large animal trophies...Category
