Proud Little Cast Brass-Bronze Rooster Crowing~2+1/8"~Great Minimalist Design

Hello All,
I picked this up many years ago, I know not where. I have a collection of small metal, glass, pottery animals, and this proud little rooster fits right in.
There's something about him that always seemed special to me,....the mysterious background of the little rooster.

Little rooster who made thee?
dost thou know who made thee?
