Hi everyone. Valentine is just around the corner. I was looking for love / valentine theme papercraft to share but then I found this interesting model of love bird. Honestly I did not know there is a species of parrot known as love bird. Anyway, it's a craft by Ikuo Anazawa for Canon Creative Park. So please enjoy it.

It's probably not as detail or life model of paper bird and yes, I have seen many good models of birds and some looked so identical to the real ones. Contrary, they are harder to make and assemble compare to the parrot that I'm sharing today. But if you are interested, I'll share some of them in my next post.

The name of the bird is kinda weird. It's called Long-tailed Tit, under Aegithalos caudatus species. It is a very small bird at only 13–15 cm in length including its very long tail, which makes up 7–9 cm of the total. You can find more info about it at wiki, Long tailed tit (bird). To get the printable template for this, you need to read the hint in the note section. Because the site is in flash so it's a bit tricky.
