For making the woodpecker you will need a slightly stiff paper with a 20-cm edge. Fold one diagonal and then bring two edges to this diagonal. This will make a pointed end. Repeat the same on the other side to make a beautiful rhombus. On folding the model in half you will get two triangles. Open the model. Then fold ONLY HALF edges to the central line. Repeat this for all the four sides to make a rhombus shape crease in the center. You can see the front and the rear portion of the model. On pressing the model you will see two long triangles with a slit in their middle. Fold the beak of the woodpecker on the right triangle. Hold the rear portion with one hand and press the top with the other. The woodpecker will start pecking in a most delightful manner. This work was supported by IUCAA and Tata Trust.
