Fasten off, leaving a tail for closing the hole. Hide the tail inside the head. 

Make a small adjustment to the eye placement: 

Insert the needle into Row 21, where the increases were made, 1 stitch away from the center. Bring it out at the lower outer corner of the first eye, then insert it at the lower inner corner of the eye, bring it out at the initial point, 1 stitch away, insert the needle, and repeat the process with the second eye. 

Crochet the beak: 

Leave a tail 10-15cm long at the beginning. CH 3. Work 3 incomplete DC with yarn over in the first CH. On the hook, you should have 4 loops. Yarn over and pull through all loops. Fasten off, leaving a 15cm tail for sewing. Sew the beak at the level of Rows 27-29, strictly in the center. 

Crochet the comb: 

Mark with pins where you will attach the comb. Crochet with red yarn. Work 3 HDC in one spot, make a SL ST in the next row, repeat 4-5 times. Fasten off, cut the yarn, and hide the tails inside the head.

Crochet with the main color yarn.

Crochet legs: 

Mark where you’ll attach the legs, between Rows 6 and 7 of the body, with 8 stitches between the markers. 

Attach the yarn in the first marked spot, CH 4, HDC in the second CH from the hook and next two, make a SL ST in the same stitch where the yarn is attached. CH 4 again, HDC in the second CH from the hook and next two, make a SL ST in the same stitch where the yarn is attached.
