Fold the paper in half diagonally again to form a triangle. Position it so the long folded edge is at the bottom. 3. Form the Wings
Start with the colored side (if any) facing down. Fold the paper in half diagonally to form a large triangle. Open it back up and fold it in half diagonally the other way. You should now have an "X" crease in your square. 2. Fold into a Smaller Triangle
Use your fingernail or a ruler to press down on every fold. Sharp creases make for a much sturdier bird.
