I concur with Broochman - a stunning bird!!
What a lovely mix of colors!
I also concur with broochman and Hoot60.This is a unique and beautiful piece.Very nice Jenni.
This is a bird?! I seen it in the thumbnail and thought it was a modernist bowl, but now I can see the lifted tail and head of a very modern little bird :P the colour is great- a really vivid emerald green and speckled I think?
That's a great bird, and so nice from the 60s.
I love that pared back shape.
Thanks all for the very kind love

Thanks Ken for the super fab compliments you are too kind, I am glad you enjoyed this rather unusual shaped glass bird and his plethora of color, it is always nice to find a rare piece like this one that has a non-traditional look
Many thanks Hoot for the wonderful compliment and finding this stunning, I am so happy to share something a bit different and this bird has quite a special look
Many thanks MrsT for your lovely compliment, I think these colors defy description and I always wonder, how in blazes do the glassmakers get those multicolor splashes into the body, it's a really cool process
Thank you so much jb for the great compliments & enjoying this bird, it delights me to find something out of the box as so many glass animals have similar shapes & designs, this guy really goes his own way!
Lauren you are absolutely right, it is a modernist design and I'm sure from a quick distant look could be mistaken for a curved bowl (very Scandinavian style I think, don't you), my friend with the very discerning eye :) Yes the base green color with speckles is really nice, my only other animal like this is also a bird by Wedgwood but in the more traditional & recognizable bird shape. Love your fabulous thoughtful comment!
Karen thank you for the terrific praise and like you, I love the bowed shape here it does have a very 60s look, the type of "mod" design that was all the rage back then. A break from the ordinary & run of the mill glass birdies, he will definitely stand out near the others in my upcoming display cabinet
Thank you Pascale & Leah for the kind love and support it is always sincerely appreciated - glad you liked this spotted birdie!

Thank you BHIFOS for the love for this Konstglas speckled (spatter?) bird, I'm very glad you found this and liked it, I'm always very grateful
The pattern of spatter could not be nicer !~
Thank you Phil for your wonderful compliment & love for this multicolor Swedish bird, it is very unusual in hand blown glass to have all those beautiful colors mixed in
