Round 5: turn, ch 5, slst into second backloop from hook, sc into next two backloops, hdc into last backloop of chain, skip one stitch, 7 sc across previous row, ch 5, slst into second backloop from hook, sc into next two backloops, hdc into last backloop of chain, slst into the sc next to the scallop. finish off, create a beak using orange yarn.
