The bird is carved from red cedar drift wood found along the Susquehanna River. It's beak is made from a Beaver claw, also from the northern Susquehanna. The flute body is adorned with Beaver tail strips, cotton and linen string windings, deer hide and glass beads. The sassafrass and lural woods making the body of the flute, were collected from fallen limbs here at Spirit Run Lodge.
