The topic for Team Early Birds in Round 4 is 'The Element of Snow'. Here is my entry:
About this creation
Ben and Casey(Sounds familiar?) were challenged by the MOCbird family to a snowball fight. Little did they know that the MOCbirds are formidable opponents.
Their opponent built a snow tower. Ben and Casey built a small snow fort.
Seems battle lines are being drawn out on the battlefield by the birds.
Here is where the snowball making process starts. Brother Cluck and Clack use shovels to put snow on the conveyor belt.
The conveyor belt leads to a machine made fully by the birds.
This machine melts the snow and the melted snow(water) comes out form the side, up through the pipe that leads to the top of the tower.
The tower is heavily guarded(well not really...) by this guard. I know he is carrying a gun, but it only shoots out small snow pellets. They wouldn't want anyone to get injured.
The summit of Mount MOCbirdy.
The awesome contraption that catapults snow into the air!! Design is still being patented(You know I'm kidding right?)
Through the pipe that came from the machine below, the water goes through this large tube. It freezes the ice into a snowy form.
The snow comes out here, in the shape of a snowball. No hassle in having to shape the snow by hand.
Once the catapult is full, the snowballs will be launched into the air.
Here is the control panel for the catapult.
Yes, there is another pellet gun, just in case the catapult doesn't work.

'What are you looking at? Be afraid of my super duper awesome snow pellet shooter gun!!!!'
And that's my entry. Hope you guys and the judges like it.
