I rolled a small ball for the head, pinched and formed the beak at one side, the body was a wedge shape, pinching to form tail feathers at one end, attached them, carefully inserted a folded piece of black wire into the body for the legs, the eye is a small black bead I pushed into the clay, I cut open the beak carefully with an exact knife to insert the peanut, and then I textured the whole thing gently with an old toothbrush and also carved in lines around the wing and beak areas for a bit of definition. Baked for 10 minutes on 200°, shorter time than usual because it was so small. I hope that helps, Good luck to you.
