This was a good one to practice glass, wood, metal and reflections!  The little bird is a lemon press; you lift the tail up (it's hinged at the eyes) and place a wedge in the belly space then lower the lever, press, and a teaspoon of lemon pours from its beak. It's really great and so simple.  Sadly, I've only used it a couple of times but I look at it everyday as it rest on the top of our stove center stage.
