What American owl is as small as a robin, makes a tooting whistle like a saw being sharpened on a whetstone and is mentioned in the Grateful Dead song Unbroken Chain? Yes, the northern saw-whet! His head shyly turned—to question, to ponder, perhaps to greet—this Saw-Whet Owl Sculpture hopes to find a permanent home with you. Cast aluminum with bronzed finish. 6.75"h. x 3.5"l. x 4"w.
