These are so cool. I hope someone will get to work on some of the New World species.
Hat-tip to my Mom.
Corey is a New Yorker who lived most of his life in upstate New York but has lived in Queens since 2008. He's only been birding since 2005 but has garnered a respectable life list by birding whenever he wasn't working as a union representative or spending time with his family. He lives in Forest Hills with Daisy and Desmond Shearwater. His bird photographs have appeared on the Today Show, in Birding, Living Bird Magazine, Bird Watcher's Digest, and many other fine publications. He is also the author of the American Birding Association Field Guide to the Birds of New York.
Next up, Lego birders?
Lego birders watching Lego birds?
Do I need to start a Lego Life List?
Of course, there’s that question … if a lego bird of a Jakarta species was created in London, displayed on a server in Paris, and viewed on a NY computer, on which list should I put that?
Thanks Corey!
@Jory: Be careful what you ask for…you might get it. (This will make more sense eventually.)
@Mon: No problem! Thanks for the awesome link.
Yes these birds are so cool!
Many birds from the New World have been created already, you can view all the birds here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/detomaso/
The North American birds are right here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/detomaso/sets/72157631175015124/
The birds need 10,000 supporters and then they might be able to become an official LEGO set! http://lego.cuusoo.com/ideas/view/16897
You can also like the birds on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LegoBirds?ref=ts
Maybe you could do another blog post on them?
They are going to be an official set released in January: https://ideas.lego.com/blogs/1-blog/post/22
