S: WORD BIRD Mutated Swap

This swap, as it was originally written, has flown the coop. Now @HoneyBadger and @LahDeeDah are making a bird on a stick. This baby will be able to perch in places twinchies would never go.

These are the hard-and-fast rules:

• Each participant will make one bird. She can use whatever materials she likes to pull this off.

• The birds (without the stick) will be at least 2.5 inches tall.

• Each bird will be attached to a stick, lollipop-style.

• Words or individual letters will be added to the finished piece to form at least one statement because, after all, these are Word Birds.

• Everybody's going to have fun. :-)
