Anyone any ideas/recommendations where I can get one from?

Taa. I've managed to find something that looks ideal. Moving head with scary eyes too!! According to the box, it also has a flatulence function!! Winner..

Grimer had to try and find one of these after we accidentally destroyed the one we'd been lent to help make a BMC "educational" video. We set up a zip line coming out from Christmas Crack, the idea being to make it look (in comedy fashion) like an alarmed bird was flying from its nest. The owl, when released, flew down straight into a boulder and exploded. Grimer blamed me, as being the Technical Officer I was supposed to know about physics, angles and stuff. Ben P interrupted our argument to tell us he'd missed the shot anyway. It took weeks of scouring Fleabay to find an appropriately hideous replacement  :)

There's a taxidermist in Llangollen I regularly drive past...Has loads of that kind of stuff in the window.
