<p>[QUOTE="Jeff Drum, post: 4446823, member: 6444"]This generally looks like the birds done by Nelli Bica, but as far as I can tell she did only owls. And this does not look like an owl (different eyes and beak). Can anyone ID the type of bird, or know of similar Zuni birds of whatever species this is? Or perhaps know the history of Zuni pottery birds - assuming decorative only? This one seems to have enough age to be mid-century or earlier.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]382159[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]382160[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]382161[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]382162[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]382163[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]382164[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]382165[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]382166[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]382167[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
