Hi Dug, I own this bird cage, a fine chinese bamboocage with a real twittering machine composed of a pipe with a piston and a rubber bellow as a air pump driven by a cam with a lever. Wind-up-toy. I know only these toy with a
cheap twittering machine (except the very expensive machines from Switzerland with a highest sound quality)

Looks like that would be a quaint little addition to one's home. I like the simple, yet elegant colors.
