Hi Dug, Detlef Knick took this bird song mechanism picture from a wonderful book about mech.music instruments, an introduction in their
technology and history, ( "Herbert Jüttemann:
Mechanische Musikinstrumente", 1987, Publisher
Erwin Bochinsky) Surely the best book about this topic, I dont know a better one worldwide. Its a reason for you to learn german !! Only available
from antiquarians, see amazon.
Google translate does a fairly good job on this web site.
Regards
Brian
