Little Bird

Little Bird first appeared on Sesame Street in Season 1, often used as a foil to Big Bird, due to their contrasting sizes.

Although Little Bird was often referred to as a "she" because of her female performer, the character appears on the Grin and Giggle with Big Bird LP with Big Bird in a song called "Mr. Big Bird, Mr. Little Bird."

Although Little Bird appeared on Sesame Street most often during the 1970s, appearances were frequently made in books throughout the 1980s and 1990s. Little Bird also made a few cameo appearances during the 1980s and 1990s. On-screen appearances include a brief fly-by in the song "Do Op Hop," sat at Birdland in "The Birdland Jump," and sang a line and appeared in "We Are All Earthlings".

Little Bird was a refurbrished version of the Kenner Gooney Bird.
