An old wall clock at my father-in-law's basement. I believe this makes bird sound "Coo Coo" and the bird comes out. It's not working now though, somebody busted it.

Beautiful old clock.

I like the clock! I have one on my wall, too, but I haven't used it in years. The cuckoo got on my familys' nerves! haha.
ReplyDeleteIs that really hahaha, so you spell it cuckoo. Thanks hehehe.

ReplyDeleteFun....kids always love cuckoo clocks....especially when they are working :) Even though it doesn't work...the shadows it produces makes up for that!!

Beautiful clock and shadow too. I think I would have to take it to be repaired. It is too pretty to be stuck in the basement.
ReplyDeleteIt looks Bavarian.
ReplyDeleteCuckoo clocks always remind me of fascinating little jewellery shops in Europe - or as I imagine that they are. The clocks ticking on the wall and jewellery under close! Lovely clock!
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you so much for the shadow quote!
