This origami flapping bird is similar to the crane except for one important detail: it can flap its wings!
Make sure you use thin origami paper to ensure the flapping of the wings works well.

Fold the top corner of the paper down to the bottom corner. Crease and open again.
Then fold the paper in half sideways.

2. Turn the paper over to the white side.
Fold the paper in half, crease well and open, and then fold again in the other direction.
