The roundish dotted beads couldn't possibly be an old style of Kiffa bead, could they? Under the loupe, they just have that melted powder glass look to the dots, trailing, glazed appearance.

As to the "bird," after looking through my loupe at what appears to be a very old fracture at the top, I wonder if it wasn't created coincidentally when two trail-decorated beads slipped together and were subsequently broken apart - one leaving remnants as the "head" and "tail" of the bird.
