I hadn't anything special in mind for Owl or Flamingo. I made these mainly as test cases for the Tube tool, to try out whether the newly implemented feature for tilting the rings and defining multiple tubes was workable. (The Owl used a second tube for its beak.) Up to that point I had only been able to make pieces that consisted of a single, vertical tube consisting of stacked ellipses. The Flamingo is associated with a (6,1) leap (which is pretty useless on an 8x8 board).
