A wooden that balances on its beak? What sorcery is this?! Hold up! It's no sorcery, for an object to balance, it needs to be supported directly underneath its center of gravity. In this case, the bird's center of gravity is located at the tip of the beak, hence it can be balanced on a fingertip, or on a tiny pole!

What is the center of gravity you say? The center of gravity is the point where all weight is evenly dispersed and all sides are balanced. So what happens if you stick a penny on one side of the wing? Give it a go!
