Well the rear end looks a lot like a sparrow. But whose head it’s wearing I’ve no idea.

Difficult to say, but the head might be from a young Palm Cockatoo. Not sure though.

Actually, scratch that. I don’t even think the head is real. The bill looks like a young Vulturine Parrot, but the rest of the head doesn’t fit.
Whoever made that did a bloody good job!
I know o about birds but I did wonder if it could be some sort of vulture. Where’s the man Pully when we need him ?

It isn’t real Graeme. 
It isn’t ‘the man Pully’ we need, it’s David Nixon. I suggest we invest in a shovel and dig him up!
Most Mums do an amazing job, else we wouldn’t be here.
Even drops by for refuelling during first flight!
We just sit and speculate about identities. 
Chorus chirps from about 2 minutes.
No, I know. I just wondered if Andy might recognise where the head came from (very possibly multiple places !). I found it by Googling for images of ‘ugly bird’. Careful if you do that incidentally - there are not just avians there …

I google ‘ugly bird’ from time to time, but that’s another story 
I think the head is a composite of several things and I don’t have a clue what the body is

All the little browny-grey jobbies look like sparrows to me

Basil Spence basalt (Scottish Widows, now Lloyds building) 1976. Next to Commonwealth Pool.
Brown glass windows. Only regular colour is a green algae bloom in the surrounding pond.
Basalt columns, Staffa 2017.
And the colours around Mount Robson, Canada.
I prefer that version to the chocolate variety
