Perhaps a little early, but what will Ornithology be replaced by next year? I think either Trees or Entomology?
When it comes to the future, there are three kinds of people: those who let it happen, those who make it happen, and those who wonder what happened.

It will probably be a while,I don't have mac access until September, and iphone coding is a big mess to get into. And even if I do get it working, it will have to be up to apple's standards.
Has anyone looked at these other bird apps? Are they detailed enough to help with SO?

Trees, I believe. Then bugs. I probably won't do bugs.

I don't want to do trees either. I hope the Committee sees my Mammals poll. It would be more interesting than trees.

No, I'm really looking forward to trees.

im actually really excited for forestry, or the punny treemendous.

I think that mammals is the logical next step. Keep it all in one kingdom, SO committee!

I don't see the point of forestry. I think it would be better to have the "Extant Animals" sequence than the "Bugs, Herps, Birds and Trees" sequence.
