A mysterious papier-mache bird has been a fixture at a stalled construction site in Eagle Rock. The site is intended to become a 31-unit multiuse complex, but work has been halted for years. The bird, nicknamed "Pinky", has become a beloved presence in the area.

Its origins, however, were unknown until recently when the artist behind the creation stepped forward. Further details about the artist and the future of the bird are available from the Los Angeles Times, as the site's development and the bird's fate remain uncertain.
