Later Days ORIGAMI: Eagle

Welcome back to Later Days ORIGAMI! Today we're folding an eagle. I was searching for some good "eagle music" and then the answer was obvious. The Hobbit! This triumphant theme plays during the Great Eagle rescue in the 1977 animated classic. Enjoy!

Special thanks to John Montroll who designed this magestic model. It comes from his excellent book Animal Origami for the Enthusiast, a must have for any origami lover. Thanks also to the late great Glenn Yarbrough who composed and performed the music for The Hobbit. And thanks as well to Howard Shore for his incredible score to Peter Jackson's Return of the King which plays briefly during the intro.
