It IS a bird.. Snopes is the best place to find out the truth about things like that..

Answer 2

I have watched a documentary on the making of the wizard of oz and the "hanging munchkin" is just a myth. You are right, it is in fact a bird. Prolly a stork, but I can't remember what kind they said it was. For some reason the people making the movie thuoght it would be interesting to have birds raoming around. I guess to make the land of oz seem even more mystical or something.

Answer 3

IT's actually just a 'glitch' caused by the 'lighting' and 'editing'.

The bird in the above video link was part of the set and the so-called 'suicide hanging' was just to the right of the bird and you can't see that much on the YouTube video.

Answer 4

This myth has been debunked many times. It is not a hanging munchkin, most explanations are that it is a bird.

Answer 5

Ill keep hanging the munchkins until my demands are met. More work for oompa loompas, fair practice for Martian midgets.

Answer 6

before everything i presumed it. Now I dont, like why could a midget be on set over the previous scene? lol additionally, the actors could have considered. In a number of the scenes till now the chook flaps its wings you will see it interior the backround. :D think of if it became into authentic? no one from the solid or group is alive so we would have by no skill knew if it became into authentic!:P lol
