If you don't mind, it don't matter. 😄 I deliberately made four blank guesses hoping for a definitive clue that I couldn't find. By the time I guessed my original suspicion, I didn't have enough guesses left to narrow it down. Oh well. 🤷🏼♂️ I don't mind, so it don't matter. 😉 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colton V Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 ugh I was thinking of the right bird on my second guess but entered the wrong name because I’m dumb. birdie 🦢 #244: 🟥🟨🟨🟩⬛⬛ https://birdiegame.net/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I make blank guesses regularly, only I'm looking for a clue I recognize at all, much less a definitive one. I had no viable guess until the fifth photo. After that, all that was left to me was a 50-50 shot (at best). Edited January 19 by Charlie Spencer 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious. Why would one make four blank guesses instead of just guessing plausible birds four times?

Charlie Spencer Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 (edited) 1 hour ago, Snake Fingers said: Just curious. Why would one make four blank guesses instead of just guessing plausible birds four times? I can't speak for @lonestranger but for this bird, I had no plausible guesses. I'm more interested in correctly identifying the bird than in getting a good score. Let's say I see the first image and can get the right family; for example, a warbler. I'll make one guess to confirm I'm in the neighborhood; I try Pine Warbler and get a yellow square. On the second photo, I'm no closer to knowing the bird than I was on the first. Since I don't care about my score, I'll make a blank guess instead of randomly trying another warbler species. Ditto the third image; still no better clue. Repeat until I can make a semi-educated guess or I run out of tries. I want to be able to identify the bird on my own, and don't care how many red squares it takes.

Plus the fact that sometimes I just get lazy and don't want to think too hard on these puzzles. 😉 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peromyscus Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 3 hours ago, Snake Fingers said: Just curious. Why would one make four blank guesses instead of just guessing plausible birds four times? Sometimes I'll start with a species from the wrong family, hoping that the next photograph will reveal the identity better. I was in the correct family today except for #4. And on line 6 I had a 50/50 chance of getting the right answer; I chose the wrong one. birdie 🦆 #244: 🟥🟥🟥🟥🟨🟨 https://birdiegame.net/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoroark Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 (edited) birdie 🦉 #244: 🟥🟥🟥🟨🟨🟩 I was in the right family the whole time. I have photographed this bird before. I try to start off by not using the guide, but if it's an unfamiliar individual of a large family (especially warblers), I may bust out the guide. I almost always use a guide on the last guess if I'm not certain, although I didn't on this particular one.
