About this Raddle

Native Americans hung gourds as houses for these birds, because they eat so many bugs.

Theme: Wingspan Birds

This week's Raddles, featuring some of our favorite birds from the game Wingspan, were co-written with Wingspan's designer (and Raddle fan) Elizabeth Hargrave! 🎉 🐦 Wingspan, which releases their Americas expansion this week, is one of my favorite board games, in no small part because every card in the game features a different bird, with a gorgeous illustration and an interesting fact about that bird. In our house, we have a rule that you have to announce the bird fact to the table when you play a bird. For the birds featured this week, we're including the bird fact from the game.
