It’s (almost) official: Lord of the Rings Online’s second and newest hobby is to be Birdwatching.

SSG’s Orion teased the reveal on the forums, saying that he’d be going into more detail in this Friday’s studio livestream: “We’ll discuss the timeline for the upcoming Bullroarer [for Update 41], Birding, Monster Play, and something unexpected!”

Speculation over LOTRO’s second hobby has been rife ever since the studio announced that it would be creating such a feature for this summer’s release. (I posted several hobby ideas this past January for fun.) But what about that “something unexpected” mention in Orion’s post? Could SSG have a secret up its sleeve? New legendary server, anyone?
