Glass bird?

This bird is in my collection, a gift from my mother inlaw. It belonged to her father who lived in NY. She is 92 years old now and I have had it for 16 years. She said it was from Italy. No markings on it. So far that is all I know about it. I have packed away all my glass because I have no place to display it. I need to unpack and take a better look!
8 in long and 6 in tall to top of head. No scraches or chips. I added these new pictures for better viewing.
