PowerTRC Magic Drinking Bird (Red)

I saw this listing and absolutely needed to buy this. I remember these guys from my childhood in the 1970's. There's one bobbing away on my desk right now! They are a neat gift, leveraging a cool science principle into a cool toy. Exactly as I remember them, built well. Works like a charm! LOVE IT!

This item is great .My dog and cat just love watching it. And I think it's really neat.

Hours of fun

Es una gran tontería, requiere un determinado tamaño del recipiente de agua y ajuste de posición pero resulta imprescindible para cualquier fanático de Los Simpsons

He do do a drink.

Why is it so small

I have been fascinated by these birds since I was a kid. Now I have one of my own. It is mesmerizing to watch him slowly rock back and forth, then bend over for a drink, then back upright to rock fast once more. Get one for yourself; you'll see what I mean.

I always wanted one of these when I was a kid; I remember calling them "Dinky Ducks". After reading all the negative reviews I almost didn't order one but the cost was such that I got one, and it works great. I'm really not sure what all the people were complaining about. It took a few minutes to get the Duck positioned correctly in the steel collar but once I found the "sweet spot" it just keeps dunking. I have it sitting on the stand below where my tv is mounted on the wall and it's sort of relaxing watching the duck doing what it does, I'm very happy with it.
