This bird has an outer covering from takeout rice containers; body made from reused cardboard and postcards; legs made from reused wire from a deconstructed sculpture.

Wabi Sabi Bird! The plastic coating on the paper (peeled off of the original cardstock paper) keeps the outer papers from lying flat on each other, so this bird has a less refined and somewhat more fragile surface finish than most of my other birds. I still love it for its cheerful colors and strong graphic quality.
