I like to take pictures of birds. I also live in Mexico. If I want to talk to anyone about doing one of the things I like, I need to learn some new words. I’m taking a break from my computer vocabulary for a bit to bring you a deck of birds and bird words. Enjoy, and let me know what I missed!
The deck is free to access and download here. Feel free to add or remove words as you see fit.
