Carrier Pigeon

This is a moving model of a carrier pigeon, and it centers around the engineering section of STEM. The wings on the bird flap and the head turns, just like the real thing! This is done by turning the two different knobs on the bird's right side that turn the gears in the body and neck. There are detailed feathers on the tail, and realistic colors throughout. It is exactly 250 pieces. I made this because I thought it could have neat functions, and it captures the beauty of a somewhat simple creature.

(Note: the video isn't very good, because I had to take it on Bricklink. However, I did build a model out of real bricks (not color schemed) and the functions work great.)
