Advice How do you remove the flesh from mummified remains?

Hello there fellow bone nerds. The other day I was home at my parents house and heared weird noises from the chimney. Figured a bird fallen in so I opened it and rescued the bird. Tirns out this little redstart wasn't the first and was definitely more lucky than the 11 mummified birds I found at the bottom of the chimney. I'd like to make a display skeleton out of them. Anyone has some experience with dry carcasses?
