Hey, Bobby—

It's identified as a "bird feeder/water fountain" at http://www.antiquebottles.co.za/Pages/Categories/Odds&Sods.htm
(See item on left in photo below.)

A similar one brought $31 on eBay earlier this month:

Dang, now how in the world did you figure that one out with nothing to go on and only about 5 million photos on ebay ? I am awed

Yeah, I'm impressed, too. That would've taken me approximately 125 years to figure out.
