🐦The drinking bird toy operates using the principles of thermodynamics.
🔥The bird's motion is driven by the evaporation and condensation of a volatile liquid.
🌡️Cooling the bird's head causes the liquid in the base to rise, making it tilt forward and 'drink'.
💡The drinking bird is a heat engine that converts heat differences into mechanical motion.
🔬The design of the drinking bird toy was based on the work of scientist and inventor Miles V. Sullivan.
