I did check the name before submitting it. Following is information sent to me
by Steve Bliss.
The part numbers/file names for the bird go like this:
2546.DAT Animal Bird
2546P01.DAT Animal Bird with Parrot Pattern
81376.DAT _Animal Bird Red with Parrot Pattern
What this all means is:
2546 is the plain bird -- the falcon
2546p01 is the parrot, but with the main color done as color-code 16.
81376 is the official LEGO number for the *red* parrot with the standard
yellow and green markings. 81376.dat just references 2546p01.dat,
specifying color-code 4 (red). We release files this way so (a) people can
use the part as whatever color they want and (b) so we've got a documented
example of the proper, true color. See part file 81149.dat/3040p01.dat for
an example of how this works.
