Origami Kingfisher

The kingfisher has a special place in my heart due to the beer that shares its name. Regardless, this is a complex model that I think works well. The open mouth is nice and the complicated array of folds on the head sell the idea of a feather crest. Maybe he is a little chubby for a kingfisher and his beak is oversized, but I like it anyway.

This one was harder to fold, but I was pretty successful, with the worst part being the tail. You can tell in the photo that it is a bit smashed. The model is also top heavy and so really needs to lean on something to stay up.
