I don't usually fold animals or birds, but this little sparrow was a delight to fold. I also liked the look of it. It doesn't look like a real sparrow, more like the cartoon version, with a nice long tail and a pair of jaunty wings.

The sparrow fairly easy to fold, though I did get stuck in the third step initially. For those trying out for the first time, please remember that in the second step, the rabbit ears has to be completed on the front and then repeated behind. Only then does step 3 work out right. Steps 6 and 7 are slightly tricky. The rest is pretty easy.

The creator, Perry Bailey, suggests using single coloured paper, so that the head and the body are the same colour, but I think duo coloured paper provide a better appearance, such as my little sparrow here.
