Duncan - The Drinking Bird
A classic novelty item!
- A simple scientific wonder
- Using principles of thermodynamics
- With constant bobbing motion!
Duncan the Drinking Bird is a fun desktop companion and classic novelty item.
Fill a glass with cold water and submerge his head in the water getting it completely wet.
Place Duncan near the glass and he will continue to bob and dunk his head into the glass all day long!
It appears to be magic... But it's actually the principles of thermodynamics in action!
Keep a full glass in front of him and he will drink all day!
This is not a toy.
Drinking glass not included.
Recommended for ages 8 and up.

Duncan - The Drinking Bird Reviews
(5)Duncan the Drinking Bird
Kat - 5 November Verified CustomerDuncan is awesome, He is very thirsty and sometimes takes a small pause between drinks. Then decides he needs a lot more in a hurry..... He is fascinating to watch and as an easily distracted person, he is just what I need. He is a wonder to watch.

Matt Hogg - 25 July Verified CustomerHi guys. Initially, the bird came damaged and had leaked all the fluid, however you guys were fantastic in quickly responding and arranging another one with no issue. Thanks again

Scotty - 24 July Verified CustomerThis science based toy is just as intriguing as the original version I had in the 1960’s This clever design actually stumped Albert Einstein ,as he refused to dismantle it and instead relied on just observations. It took him months to figure it out ! This is a faithful representation of the original toy, and it is very good value.

Trish Lynn - 12 January Verified CustomerMy adult son has always wanted one of these..he was so happy to open it and set it up. As far as I know, the bird still hasn't actually drunk from the glass yet, which is a little bit funny.

Kirk Winters - 27 July Verified CustomerI’ve always wanted one of these since a friend of mine had these for many years. It’s a talking point amongst my family and friends, but also an informative science talking point with our younger generation. Thanks Coolthings for your exceptional quick delivery and follow up. Look forward to making my next purchase from you soon.

Melissa - 17 March Verified CustomerIt's drinking the water! A bit of a confession here.... I've bought this to be part of a father's day gift for my husband this year (talk about being organised!), because I actually wanted it myself. So now I have to wait till September to see it in action, but I guess that's only fair. Luckily I know he'll love it as well, so it's not quite as bad as Homer buying an engraved bowling ball for Marge (for those of you out there who enjoy a certain cartoon). It arrived quickly after ordering, and was packed well.
