Origamists around the world seem to be putting the quarantine to good use! Instagram and Facebook are rife with origami enthusiasts teaching various models, origami conventions are being organized online and in general, a lot of people are putting their time to good use. 

Once such origami demonstration I happened upon was in Instagram. The author of the model, Fabian Correa was interviewed online and then he demonstrated to the host and to the viewers, how to fold this really cute hummingbird. The entire session was in Spanish, so I did not understand anything that was spoken, but origami is a universal language and the folding was something I understood quite well. It was well demonstrated and folding along wasn't a hardship. 

I used 6 inch origami single-sided paper. The final shaping took some time, but otherwise it was a good, fun origami to fold.
