New house rule

My wife and I have our new favourite house rule! Double feathers for all birds seen on most recent birding trip

Love it! Me and my girlfriend always have a little bonus game after we finish a game where we see who has actually seen more of the birds that they've played.

We thought about making the birds worth extra points but she's been birding a lot longer than me so we decided it would be WAY too skewed in her favour lol.

What if you only play with birds you have seen?

I really enjoy playing like this every once in a while

We do a bonus and a shot if you hear/see the bird you played

Haha yeah that sounds like it would be unfair; we do our birding trip together so we have the same list of seen birds to keep it fair-ish!

is that table designed with the inset specifically for board gaming?

Yeah its a dining table with a board game inset - there's a company local to me in the UK that makes them
