Head and body
Worked in one piece from the front to back.
Will be great if you have two balls of black yarn. If there is only one, either prepare a small ball of yarn in advance or use the other end of the current ball.
Begin with White yarn. Stuff as you go.

Cut the working yarn and secure the end. Using black yarn sew two middle treble crochets to the white part of the head as if continuing these crochets by 2 rounds towards the center. Using orange yarn embroider the beak as shown in the picture. Insert the safety eyes on the same level as the beak line. Using pink yarn embroider the cheeks. Take up the body again.
