When something walks up on a grouse, it bursts into a short low flight and drops back down some way off. Until now it did that badly: it flew in whatever direction it happened to be facing, so it could go sideways or backwards across the clearing, gliding at full speed from the first moment with its wings still folded.

Now it turns to face where it is going as it leaves the ground. It labours off the ground slowly, at a fifth of its flight speed, and takes about a second to reach full speed. Its wings beat hard through the climb, it glides with them spread, then it beats again to land and folds them away. Its legs hang still under it in the air.



The owner also asked for "some goofy neck bobbling", so a grouse now walks the way ground birds do: its neck jerks forward on every step while its head stays level, with a little sway from side to side.

The wings needed joints of their own to move. Each wing now hinges along its top edge at the shoulder, so it swings out and up from the body, and the bird's model in the art tools carries the same joints.
