How about 蝙蝠 for luck? I could use some luck. ;)

I had to google that for myself and I found nice blog about bats in chinese culture.

That blog is really cool, thanks for pointing it out.

I love the idea of magpie! When I lived in the UK I used to (kind of) support Newcastle United, and they were known
as the magpies! Also I think it was considered lucky if you saw a magpie, but unlucky if you saw two. Or something
like that, my memory is slightly hazy there!
