Mason,

The bird can be "taxidermied" only for someone with a proper license
to collect native species. I donated a Kingfisher (struck on the 520
bridge) to Burke Museum. It could be that the little museum at Mercer
Slough (just north of the blueberry farm on Bellevue Way) could take
it. I also know folks at Camp Long in West Seattle who would probably
love to have it -- they do a lot of education through their summer
camp program.
