FAQ

Common questions

There's a penguin here, but penguins can't fly, right?

Correct, penguins are flightless birds that swim instead. They're still birds, which is why PENGUIN belongs in the grid alongside the flyers like EAGLE and FALCON.

Could I use this to learn backyard birds I might actually see?

Several entries, including ROBIN, SPARROW, CARDINAL, and FINCH, are common feeder visitors across much of North America. Finding them is a fun prompt to go watch for the real thing.

Which bird name is the shortest and easiest to find?

OWL at three letters is the shortest, though short words can paradoxically hide well in a dense grid. FINCH and ROBIN are usually the next quickest to catch.
