If they would only make the bird shadows a brighter color -- I would have the patience to stay on longer and possibly play this game through. Most of the time I cannot see the shadows and so I just give up. Must be my eyes...

Some rooms are harder to see than others. The birds do appear in the same spots in each room. Hmm, maybe I should try and post some pics here - would that help anyone?

Exactly my problem from the beginning!

Happy tried to help me with ooe room.. but I can click away forever and not "hit" them. So yes please, I could use all the rooms! Maybe I might be able to do a bit more... got my new high score overnight.. 98!

Thanks Princess!

OK, here goes. There seem to be five spots in each room where a bird will stop so you can click on them. Some are easy to see, some not so much. Especially in the first room.

In this last room, watch the bird near the EXIT sign. I have on several occasions clicked those tail feathers only to have accidentally hit EXIT!

Not a fun mistake.

The first room (the room with the dark green grass) is the worst for spotting birds. I find the 3 in the row that appear closest to the top of the screen the worst. Long ago I wrote VFK my concerns about this. Unfortunately there has not been any noticeable change.

For those of you having trouble in the room mentioned above, try just doing the 2 birds on the lower right and getting the gas in this one room. Once that is accomplished then randomly click for the "top row of birds".

Thanks for this Princess. I'll see if I could gather some playing time for the bird game one of these days.

Thanks Princess, and Happy (yet again) for trying to help us "no see.ums" folks!

I am having no issue mine come up like this

seriously that first room is too dark and the shadows are not real bright and cheery

AmberDaze · « **Reply #8 on:** July 06, 2008, 08:55 PM »

OMG Add, if they were only colored like that - I might have half a chance of playing!

OMG! There's that American Purple Duck you showed me a pic of a while back!

Seriously, that would be a help.. even a brown would show up better!

Adventure! Priceless.

Seriously friends, send them a note via contact us about the birds. Maybe if they get anough requests the y will change things.

PrincessWendyBird · « **Reply #11 on:** July 06, 2008, 09:23 PM »

Oh my gosh Add!

So funny! Like neon 80's birds! I feel like singing "Wake me up before you go go"

woot woot adventure I want to play your bird game!!! I can see those darn birds. now if I could look at the pic and read the answers faster I might play rofl

Mystery-Red · « **Reply #13 on:** July 07, 2008, 08:17 AM »

now that I saw adventures beautiful birds I wrote to vfk and told them of the problem so many of us have with seeing the birds and how much better the colored birds are. plus I told them I don't read fast and when I attempt to play the game I can only get like 2 birds per room, and that maybe if I didn't spend the majority of my time trying to find the birds I might be able to do better. hope it works and they change it. because I am broke and need some money. My highest money amount from birds so far is 100. Don't you all feel sorry for me now rofl.

Nope! Cause my high is still 98!

see my problem with the game is I can never remember which bird goes with what name. Sad right? One would think I would have started figuring that out by now.

Panda Pandora · « **Reply #16 on:** July 07, 2008, 09:45 AM »

These birds are definately playing defense!
My problems are many. Too much to read; I agree. Birds in dark areas bad news; I agree.
Cannot get both gas cans in second and forth screen (that is if I am lucky enought to get there)LOL.
Oh well, guess I just need practice, practice, practice, practice!!!

Hugs all.

Do not even try for the first gas can in the second room. It is not need and to many obstacles to get at it.

The last room for the last gas can. You will see a stump before the gas can. get the car as close as you can to the stump without hitting the stump this will line you up to hit the gas can head on.

Also learn the flowers (color and shape) some are very distinct so you will not have to read much unless you are not sure.

Hope that helps I could not tell you which Canada bird it is but I know when it pops up it has a huge white flower in the middle

As with all the cans - getting them has to do with approach more then anything. I get that can everytime - as I enter the room i move down just a bit till i see the stump behind the truck then move up more then the original line to stay clear of the log - As I approach the gas and the can and rear tire line up diagnal I slowly edge down till the rear tire and the can meet. you will pick it up before they touch if not you missed. - don't move down too much or you will miss the second can.

New personal best 19,148 I could have gotten higher but the lag makes the pop up windows very slow sometimes. And I still had 2 wrong to go

This game is funny. Sometimes I know the birds oor can guess well. Other times I get like 179 when the birds are small and have same sounding names rofl.
