Rovio Entertainment Ltd. has announced the latest update in the Angry Birds franchise, version 2.5.0 of Angry Birds Seasons, a back-to-school release that delivers 20 new stages, a new bird, and new bonus levels.

The Finnish development studio says, “it's back to school time […] But summer's not over yet.”

“… we've got some spectacular surprises in store! Brighten your day with 20 brand new schoolyard levels, new bonus levels, and a BRAND NEW BIRD,” reads the changelog.

Mind you, these 20 colorful levels are not to be played in History class, but at home, or during recess (if you simply must pop some pigs during school hours).

Angry Birds Seasons is compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad and requires iOS 3.0 or later.
