Crank mechanism with crank slider

A stork practises its usual occupation and transports a baby to its destination.

The crank slider moves up and down, backwards and forwards. Because the distance of the wings to the fulcrum is fixed by linkages, there is an impression of beating wings during the up and down movement of the stork's body.
