Pataxó whistle

When i saw this piece of wood on the ground with the handicrafts, I asked him what it was.
He wanted to show me, and made amazing bird's sounds.
I still don't know who was more concentrated,
he blowing the whistle
or me shooting his portrait
while listening the bird's sound through him.

All around was silence.

If i'm not wrong, his name is Matiguti,
which means tree's forest with big fruit :)
