Hello all! This is my first attempt at homebrewing for a new game I'm running. I've been working on a few attempts at giving the bird races good stats and such based on their folklore and biology, and so far I have three, (am considering more, but for now, three is enough for me.) Ravens, Robins, and Bluejays.
Ravens:

Racial Traits
Ability Scores: +2 Cha, +2 Dex
Size: Tiny
Speed: Six squares
Vision: Low Light
Languages: Avian, Raven (Really more setting fluff)
Skill bonuses: +2 Stealth, +2 Streetwise.
Racial Power:
Blending the Background:
Encounter, Free Action, Personal
Effect: Effectively disappear for one turn.
(Yes, this is the rogue race, why do you ask? :smalltongue:)
Robins

Racial Traits
Ability Scores: +2 Str, +2 Dex
Size: Tiny
Speed: 5 squares
Vision: Normal
Languages: Avian, Thrush
Skill Bonuses: +2 Athletics, +2 Acrobatics
Racial Power:
Thrushes Strike:
Daily, Minor action
Quick strike ignoring AC, for 1D6 dmg.
(And for those of you who know the scientific name, no turd jokes.)
Bluejay

Racial Traits
Ability Scores: +2 Wis, +2 Con
Size: Tiny
Vision: Normal
Languages: Avian, Mannish (English, basically.)
Skill Bonuses: Arcana +2, Religion +2
Racial Power:
Blue Bolt:
Encounter, Minor Action.
Do 1D4 Arcane dmg to target.
Obviously, they still need some work done on them, which is why I'm posting them here for others to look at and (hopefully!) add on to.
Feel free to critique and look through. :smallsmile:
