I know some other people have made some bases inspired by birds, and I definitely don't want to step on any toes! But I noticed that the only bases we currently have in-game based around African birds of any kind are the Flamingo and Jacana bases. There's such a wild diversity of beautiful birds in Africa that bases could take inspiration from, and I wanted to try my hand at making a few!

I'm not really sure how these could be implemented into the game, maybe some could be applicators crafted using feathers or sold in various events, and others could be BO released on raffles and such.

I tried to make some bases that appeal to everyone, so there's some natural ones, some colorbomb ones, some are highly patterned, some aren't. If these are popular enough or anyone has any suggestions I might make some more!
