It's at the USA Origami Convention 2007 --- Are diagrams available?

It's by Satoshi Kamiya. On other convention pictures (sorry, I don't remember where exactly) there was a small CP to be seen next to it.

It's an amazing model in my opinion :-)

Edit:
Found the picture with the CP:

This model was first seen when Kamiya won the Origami Champion contest with the Wizard of Oz theme. This might be an updated version though.

I was wondering how many people here actually saw those episodes... The improv stuff that they had the contestants sometimes do was absolutely amazing! One of the contestants owned a 'japanese pancake' restaruant in Tokyo that I loved. He would fold models for his customers and was really charismatic, and I think he was part of the reason why I got into origami. He was eliminated in a contest where they had to make a particular crane chain the fastest.

We have satellite TV but only one channel, NHK.
But TV Champions is discontinued on NHK now :( .


But since it's Kamiya's model, I wouldn't hope for diagrams. They're too time consuming to make I guess, in relation to how much time he spends designing.

Is this the same as his Chocobo model that appeared in one of the Tanteidan convention books awhile back? Or is it different?

Little Bird, not Yellow Bird. Look at the cover here: http://origami.gr.jp/Magazine/Index/103-108-e.html

has anybody folded the Little Bird? I'd be interested in knowing what the steps to finishing the bird is like. And whether this bird is comparable to Mr. Lang's song bird II in Origami Design Secrets.
