Carroll Spinney, who's the puppeteer for both Big Bird and Oscar. Spinney stands inside the Big Bird costume and uses one hand to operate the mouth, and uses his free hand to operate the left hand. The other hand moves by a string that's connected to the beak and other hand. That way when one hand moves, the other does as well.
as far as performance goes, Spinney can see what he's doing, by watching a 1-2 inch TV screen inside the suit. He sees what the audience sees.
Hope this helps!
