Balancing Bird

Well let me introduce perhaps the coolest physics magic ever: a balancing bird. A bird that leans on everything with only its beak and despite lots of displacements and disturbances it balances. I chose to design it in the form of a parrot with a stand in the shape of an island full of trees and nature. This set teaches in the most experiential way how a balance point works in physics. I think this set can enrich the world of lots of curious children.

Here is a video showing the bird balancing:
