Thanks Christian!

I really like the idea of having a mascot for docs!

A bookworm sounds nice, but like you said, it may not be allowed as a
non-real creature.
Butterfly looks beautiful, the only thing I am concerned about is how it is
related to docs. It can fly from project to project and eat nectar of new
features. =}

What about a *white stork* whose wings may resemble white book pages and
who brings new docs instead of children? =)
