    Mexican Pottery Owl Whistle

    Made in Mexico

    When you blow into the tailpiece it makes a wonderful realistic owl sounding who sound.

    This piece has sat in the house since I was a child. It is souvenir pottery that you would purchase while on vacation.

    Even in the daylight it's very hard to take pictures of because the clay is so black, it's like a black hole.

      Very special and fun!
      I also have a little clay bird that is a whistle...I’ve never known anything about it’s origins. ...maybe Mexico also.

      I'm amazed how they can make this figure and then just put a couple holes in it and get a realistic sounding owl.

      At night here I often here owls hooting and it is so wonderful.
      This is cool, beautiful burnished black clay, lovely owl shape, and it hoots!
