Thank you Admiral. The ornamentation threw me off on that tool. Hope people can see through the ornamentation on this one.

Are there any other parts of this device?

The part directly above the hummingbird, which extends out over the bowl, looks like it could hold a rod or spindle, maybe spools of thread to be twisted on the wheel....

Not a rollerskate

All the parts are there but one is not viable. The wheel thingy is a spool.

It's an ancient egyptian self propelled bird feeder.... bird gets strapped to the contraption and a springloaded mechanism turns the wheel which shoots out seeds into the birds mouth

Have used a more modern design many times. I'm sure someone will snap up with an answer.

Is it where they unwind silk worm cocoons and wind them up on a spool.

[edit] Is this it without all the fancy carving?
