I had a blank space on the front of my house that needed to be filled with something nice to look at. This Eagle plaque looks great up there. The details and the quility are what I expected after reading Whitehall product reviews. I had to tweak it a bit as far as mounting the bird. Did not like the mounting hooks on the back because I did'nt feel it would be secure enough for outdoor mounting. What I did was drill a small hole on both wings, ran stainless steal screws through them and mounted it to the house that way. Oh!, colored the screw heads with black permanent marker. LOOKS GREAT !
