We present a simple model of the dynamics of the drinking bird and relate its period to the properties of its internal and external liquids. The effect of humidity on the motion is studied and it is shown that there are two evaporation regimes. The results of the model are in agreement with observations. © 2003 American Association of Physics Teachers.
