Swap the birds puzzle

A three-dimensional rotating disc puzzle apparatus comprising:

• a base member having two or more recessed areas along the surface of one side of said base member;
• an array of cooperatively interlocking disc members rotatably attached along the surface of the side of said base member containing said recessed areas, said disc members having one or more concave sections removed from the perimeter of said discs so as to allow said array of discs to be positioned on said base member in a cooperatively interlocking manner with respect to each other, said positioning allowing the manipulation or rotation of no more than two discs at any given time, a plurality of said disc members having notched areas along the perimeter of said discs so that when said notched discs are properly arranged through a series of rotations or manipulations, the notched areas of said discs align to create a portal or passageway in the shape of, and in direct alignment with, said recessed area of said base member;
• and,
• two or more play pieces in the shape of the recessed areas of said base member, each play piece being removably received by one of said recessed areas of said base member, the insertion or removal of said play pieces to and from the recessed areas of said base member being allowed only when the notched areas of said discs are aligned so as to create said portal or passageway.
