Realistic plushes always get my attention, and this one was not different. The market is so full of cute little animals (cats, dogs and the like) that finding a realistic-looking bird was a surprise.

This raven is quite big; you can insert almost half arm inside. Your fingers can work the beak and the wings. It has big round purple and black eyes, and it's very soft despite its appearance.

However, you can't prop it to stand like the picture shows. The feet are not wired (therefore, they bend). But you can make it "sit".

A must for any Poe fan!!

I ordered this for my language classroom. It is a beautifully made puppet, seems to be very durable, and I think I will get a lot of use out of it. It arrived in a very timely fashion, too. I recommend it!

This puppet is much nicer than it photographs in his picture! He is large, black and furry...Lots of personality...I call him Russell. I think any puppeteer would love this crazy bird.
