Fly Away Birds

(Based on 1 review)
This trick has not been seen on the magic market in over 20 years. It was originally made and sold by the late Jack Hughes. Now remade in a new and modern design. Nicely silk screened in bold colors, this can be seen easily anywhere. This is good clean easy to do magic for your children's shows, and a classic turn around effect. Mounted on a wooden base is a photo of two birds sitting on a wall. The magician explains that he will make the birds disappear. However in order to do that he must cover the plaque with a silk and saying 'fly away Peter fly away Paul', in the same movement he turns the plaque around to show that the birds have gone. At this point the young audience will protest, telling you that you turned it around. 'Ok' the magician says, 'I will bring them back,' once again the plaque is covered with the silk and turned around to show that the birds are back, the young audience will protest harder and harder yelling 'YOU TURNED THEM AROUND'. After some by-play the magician promises to do the trick one last time, so once again he covers the plaque turns it around and removes the silk. And there on the wall is a photo of a big cat. The cat has eaten the birds. Delivered complete with instructions and patter, ready to work right away. (Supply you own silk). This trick is a sure-fire crowd pleaser for any type show.

Have you performed Hippy Hop Rabbits or Fraidy Cat one time to many for your repeat performances. Well, Fly Away Birds is for you. Easy to do, very colorful, packs flat magic that gets a great audience response.

This seldom seen effect will makes the young kids whoop for joy and will fool the older kids and adults. "I can almost hear their wings flapping - do you think they are flying away?"
