Birds of North America Deck
Deck of 52 Playing Cards
Beautiful bird photography right in your full house (also in every three-of-a-kind, straight, or royal flush)! This new Birds of North America Deck will provide card players of all stripes with a fun way to identify some of our most common feathered friends. Featuring stunning photos by the award-winning bird photographer Gerrit Vyn, each card displays a striking image and the species' common and Latin names. The suits include:
Hearts = Backyard Birds
Clubs = Waterfowl
Diamonds = Shorebirds
Spades = Owls and Raptors
Extra cards include two jokers, a card listing key birding conservation organizations and how to learn more, and two additional cards providing a combined overview of the four species types, including general characteristics, habitats, and conservation status.
