SHEPHERD WHISTLE These mouth whistles were and still are used by shepherds to direct their herding dogs from afar. A simple whistle command can direct a herding dog and be a lifesaver to the shepherd whose dog is out of earshot of a human voice. It is believed that the first shepherd whistles were only lids from a discarded can folded in half with a hole punched in the center. Today these whistles retain the distinctive half moon shape. With practice, anyone can create a unique whistling language of their own to direct a faithful canine, child, loved one or announce supper to the clan. The hole in the handle allows for leather strapping or lanyard for hanging around your neck.

SHEPHERDS PICK Springtime begins the ritual of breeding season for most wild birds. Nesting material can often be hard to find. Softness of 100% wool helps keep eggs warm and dry plus cushions them from breakage until hatched. Hang this basket outside. Enjoy watching wild birds pull the wool through and carry it to their already prepared nest. Shepherds have known the advantages of wool for centuries. Now you can share this knowledge with nature's creatures. Note: Due to the natural state of this product, some debris remains within the wool.
