Long-necked bird associated with origami (5)

I believe the answer is:

crane

(Other definitions for crane that I've seen before include "Wading bird - lifting apparatus" , "Bird; dockside machine" , "Large long-legged bird" , "Bird; hoister" , "Hoist; wading bird" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
