    This has been in my family's basement forever. I inherited it. My dad was an antique dealer so he picked it up somewhere, but he didn't specialize in folk art. I would love to know more about, its age, anything. Its very delicate - made of wood, wire, and maybe paper trim at least in one place. There is a bellow that compresses when the bird lifts its wings and head as you pull it.

      What a wonderful pull along.
      I gather the wings and tail move?
