Does anyone have a recommendation for a book or publication that contains very nice bird models? I have the 2 books by Montroll. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

How about Gerard Ty Syovann's "Pure Origami - Protected animals"? It includes 5 bird models and I think it's a lovely book, although some of the diagram explanations can be a bit puzzling at first - at least for me.
The book is available from www.origami-shop.com

There are also several birds in Passionorigami's newest publication, "Origami Essence" by Roman Diaz (same shop) and three impressive models in Michael G. Lafosse's "Advanced Origami".

5 models in "Origami Zoo" by Robert J. Lang and Stephen Weiss.
Several flapping bird models in "Origami in Action" by Robert J. Lang.

A great website for checking out the models in books is www.giladorigami.com

There are also two great birds in Lang's Origami design secrets and great Kamiya bird in Tanteidan Magazine 104. Also, Victoria Serova has an excellent bird on her and Vladimir's site:
