This one-of-a-kind handmade decoration features the large horned screamer.  While it is related to ducks and geese found in South American wetlands, its bill is more like a chicken's as it feeds on leaves, flowers, and roots of aquatic plants. Its loud "u-who" call immediately marks its presence. The curious thin structure that extends in front of its head is reminiscent of a quail, but it is made of hard material, not a feather, and periodically breaks off at the tip.

This decoration will distinguish you as someone who truly appreciates unusual birds of the world.  It will keep you company with a smile on your desk, mantel or book case.

The sale of these crafts supports forest conservation and helps meet local needs in traditional communities in Peru.  This one-of-a-kind craft was woven by an artisan from a village on the Maranon River with natural chambira palm fiber.
