[lace] searching for a pattern

I am looking to find the pattern of the 3D bird which has wings that attach to the top and give it a lovely look. I have seen two of them made by fellow arachnids and one at the poole bobbin lace day so there is a pattern out there for it. Can anyone tell me where I might find it please. Sue T
