These realistic, full-colour paper bird models could not be easier to make - and they really fly! Simply press along the perforations, fold according to the instructions, add a 5 cent piece for weight, then send them skyward in long, straight glides or looping swoops. All of the birds feature captions that include their Latin names and accurate information about their habitats, behaviours, and pointers on where to look for them.

DESCRIPTION

These realistic, full-colour paper bird models could not be easier to make - and they really fly! Simply press along the perforations, fold according to the instructions, add a 5 cent piece for weight, then send them skyward in long, straight glides or looping swoops. All of the birds feature captions that include their Latin names and accurate information about their habitats, behaviours, and pointers on where to look for them. In addition to the fun of making and flying models, this book offers a great way to learn how to identify birds.

Author and artist Richard Merrill, a former aerospace design engineer, has created vivid and recognisable depictions of the birds' plumage. The 24 familiar species in this collection include the Eastern Meadowlark, Baltimore Oriole, and Western Tanager. Some of these birds have decreased in number during recent years and appear on the National Audubon Society's report on endangered birds. This book provides readers of all ages with an opportunity to learn about birds as well as the chance to play with flying paper toys!

About the Author:
Richard Merrill is an engineer, illustrator, puppeteer, and lover of birds, paper airplanes, kits, and design. He founded an energy efficiency company in Blue Hill, Maine, where he designs interactive informational dashboards for schools and businesses. Details about flying these bird models, identifying birds in the wild, and more are available at his blog, www.3hawk.com.

SHIPPING DETAILS
Delivery Charges

The cost to deliver your order, no matter the size or weight, anywhere within Australia is $14.99 including packing & handling. It's called a 'Flat-Rate' shipping fee, and it's the most you will pay for any size order, regardless of your geographical location within Australia. And the best part of all, it's a door-to-door service which not only affordable, but convenient too!

Delivery Times

Australia is a large country geographically which means transit times can vary significantly from one location to the next. Deliveries can take anywhere between 1 and 10 days, or even more to places like Christmas Island and other similar remote areas. All orders are packed and despatched from our Ravenhall (Melbourne-based) warehouse so if the order is urgent, please consider the distance your order is required to travel prior to order placement.

Same Day Despatch

For same-day despatch, orders must be placed and paid for prior to 12:00 pm (local Melbourne time or AEST). This excludes weekends, public holidays, and peak periods during the October, November & December months.

Next-Day Delivery

Urgent, next-day* deliveries are offered to specific areas of Australia by Australia Post. Delivery areas that are covered by the Express Post Network can be viewed here. Addresses situated outside of the Express Post network may still be ordered as 'Express Post' if quicker delivery times are needed, compared to standard shipping. * Please note that additional shipping fees will apply.

Order Collection/Pickup

Orders may be collected from our warehouse (located at 2/65 Eucumbene Dr, Ravenhall Victoria). Please remember to select "Warehouse P/U" as your shipping method at the checkout. This is a free service, and you can usually collect your order from our warehouse within about an hour.
