About the game

The seasons are changing and these well dressed birds are looking for a new place to call home. Hard-headed Eagle Owls love company in warm weather but need some personal space when it’s cold. Regal Kingfishers and Determined Woodpeckers thrive together when food is plenty, but what happens when it’s scarce? Over three seasons, create sanctuaries as fetching as the birds themselves in this simultaneous drafting and bonus-driven set collection game. Experience a novel take on seasonal change by rotating and upgrading location cards each round/season to reflect changing food availability, whilst carefully balancing a variety of bonuses, from bird buddy benefits to full flock freebies. —description from the designer
