So these little guys are about 3-4 inches tall, turned from cedar and pine, and have beaks made from dowels sharpened in the trusty ol' Bostich pencil sharpener.

The Son is a penguin lover, mostly due to the wonderful penguin and puffin habitat at the St. Louis Zoo, so these were inevitable. As turnings go, they're quite easy and I will probably do more as I practice with new tools and techniques.
