This is my second in the Angry Bird plushie series and my next will be the Black Bomb bird. By the way if you are buying all the materials new because you don't have them already it could be a little pricey depending on where you buy, how much yarn you buy (trust me you hardly need a ball for the biggest part of the body), etc. In this tutorial, I used the magic ring a lot. If you don't know how to do this, the first step on my Green Pig tutorial explains how to do it. Sorry in advance for the lack of pictures of the parts. :(
