Originally conceived by songbird hunters in Europe, the bird call attracts birds by creating the illusion that other birds are in the area.
The authentic Audubon bird call, known for generations by bird watchers and nature enthusiasts, has been handcrafted and tuned in the USA for more than 75 years using the same traditional methods.
The bird call's sound is produced by rotating the wooden cylinder against the cast zinc plug. Various bird sounds can be accurately imitated by varying the pressure between the two surfaces while twisting back and forth.
Be sure to keep the instrument dry; a small amount of the included powdered rosin, used occasionally, will renew the bird call's voice.
