Step 1: Get Yur' Paper
Get a piece of paper, any will do, square or rectangular. If you have a rectangular piece, you know what to do. Just cut or rip off the spare piece at the end.
Step 2: Folds, Folds!
Fold everything in every which way you can possibly think of. (Okay not really.)
1. Diagonal fold.
2. Other diagonal fold.
3. Both vertical and horizontal folds.

Step 3: Squashed Square
This is a well known fold when making birds and animals. It'd be best if you knew how to do this fold, so for clarity, instructions are within the image notes.
Step 4: Straighting Things Out
Lots of pics here! All you're gonna do is fold the edges in and pop them out at the top. Get it?
1. Make those folds.
2. Crease them in.
3. Flip it around and make those same folds like so.
4. Crease those in as well.
5. Fold the top triangle along this line down.
6. View of that action.
7. Unfold everything like in pic.
8. Bring the top corner up.
9. Should end up with this.
10. Flip again and do the same.
11. ^^^^^Done.^^^^^

Almost done with your bird!
