I feel like this is a coincidence for City’s farm subtheme. I have a speculation. I just don’t want to give you wrong idea but i feel like it’s a “perfect timing” for 90th annivesary set King Leo’s Castle or whatever it’s called. 

You see, farm subtheme will have chickens, cow, calf, pig, piglet, sheep, and lamb. What if…that 90th anniversary set. During Middle Age, normally there were farm animals (cow, sheep, pig, goat, chickens, etc et

Of course, we have no evidence that Castle will have farm animals yet.  And I’m not trying to get your hope up. Especially for @Roebuck, you said you wish a LOT animals in that forum. :)

Given how often horses, pigs, cows, chickens and *cough* goats have turned up in previous castle sets … I would think they might show up again in this set.

You are quite right but what about lamb, calf, foal, and piglet? And I can “hear” you say goat. :)

Of course. I was making the broader point about livestock. Them medieval minifigures sure weren’t vegan …

True…Sorry I was not thinking straight - I’m just having a bad day today..

So yeah farm animals will be in 99th anniveary set, I guess.

  90 goats in 90th annivesary set sounds great - I’m sure desginers will gloat (pun intended) about this!

The castle ramparts can be made of goats

Yeah, I can imagine that way. We could go get it instead of that Goat Boat (Motor Goat, probably if a goat can swim faster, probably?).

Maybe the City advent calendar will just be 24 daily goats.

 I love your idea!

The preliminary images of the Creator 3 in 1 Viking Ship just leaked and it looks like there are a couple of brick built ravens. 
 

Obviously this doesn’t mean any new molds because these creator 3 in 1 sets are always strictly brick built animals so far as I’ve seen, but here’s hoping it’s a step in the right direction of lego finally acknowledging that we need something other than seagulls and songbirds to populate our parks and streets.

Let’s just replace minifigures with goats.

I am still waiting on the pigeons for my modular street etc,  a Corvus mould would come in handy as well

Haven't seen it mentioned but one of the new Mario sets includes the little bird in red.

 

[Lion King]

Does that red bird from Super Mario have “nomral” beady eyes like City animals? Or…?

It’s hard to see any printing from the pics we have seen … the blue one appears to be totally blank. But I think we will just have to wait and see

Got it, thanks. I am hoping they are not just blank.

Yeah - who knows? Remember how the first ‘official’ pictures of the pyroraptor didn’t have the stud on the back? Could be an issue with the image.

Good point!

I really hope those red birds become available to purchase.  I want some Cardinals for my builds.

There are several versions of owls, an eagle, rubber duckies you can use as ducklings, there are the new squirrels, there is a skunk, several different versions of dogs and cats.  There is the reindeer, bears, mt. lions, alligators, baby alligators, Some versions of the friends animals may work like the flamingos, raccoon, of the top of my head.  There are some turtles,  rats, bats, snakes, spiders, frogs, and rabbits.  I'm sure there is others i've missed but there are plenty of options to populate your parks and streets.

You’re preaching to the choir here, I think 😜

I think the point is that, up until this year’s squirrels, we have been lacking in ‘everyday’ animals, which we might expect to have. Including, but not limited to, pigeons, crows, ducks, small birds and bunnies in brown etc.

Yeah unless you count the friends squirrels which were to big and colorful in my opinion.  

I think they will do a fox, coyote, wolf at some point.  We really do need adult duck, geese, swans, pigeons, and obviously other colors of the small bird that you can use as various species of birds like cardinals, blue jays, finches, sparrows, swallows, junco's, etc.  It would be nice to get something like a pileated woodpecker.  An Ibis, heron or stork would be nice too.  A proper raven or crow really needs to be done though.  Some other raptors like hawks, falcons, would be good along with a nice recolor of the eagle to resemble a vulture.  

Some animals like a beaver, woodchuck, white-tailed deer, wild boar, moose, elk, bison, gazelles, water buffalo, antelope, big horn ram, capibara, badger, prairie dog, fisher, mink, kangaroo, opossum, porcupine, tiger, otter, zebra, hippo, pandas, koalas, sloth not like the friends one, anteater, etc.

Some reptiles like more iguanas, komodo dragon, geckos, etc.

@zoth33, I see that you mentioned “tiger”. We do have tiger back in 2017 in City’s Jugnle Exploration subtheme.

I’m not counting Jasmine’s pet tiger since it’s more Friends-sequel than City one.

I forgot about that but it would be nice to have it again in another set.
