I bought this for my wife and she wasn't disappointed. Nice to have some local birds included, and the nectar adds another twist to the gameplay. Takes 1 game to learn the way to play (about 1–1 1/4 hours per game) then each game is different after that with different goals and cards. Thoroughly recommend it

Great thinking game. Really enjoy it.

This game is both beautiful and edifying. Sure, the eggs are cute, and it's easy to pick up, but you also get the chance to learn something new about all heaps of different birds. Have fun, learn impressive facts, play this game!

Stonemeier has made some real effort to balance the three habitats by introducing a new food type, and the amount of resources each habitat gives, so it's no longer ‘egg spamming’ on the last round.

With the addition of nectar, the new birds, the game-end bird types, the new bonus cards and round-end goals (among other stuff in the pack) – this is a really worthwhile expansion to grab. It adds a lot of extra strategy to score points from, which just expands the original experience. Definitely recommend this if you enjoyed the base game
