		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;Smattathias: I organized the tips to make them more read-able. I also deleted false information. I added one tip and a clarifying statement. Overall, it&amp;#039;s meant to be much more readable and helpful.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;TIP #1:&#039;&#039;&#039; Take a look at your and your opponents&#039; flown home flocks to decide whether to go for 3 flocks each of 2 different bird species, or 1 flock each of 7 bird species. The dealt cards will often dictate which option to take.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;TIP #2:&#039;&#039;&#039; There are only so many cards of each bird type. As birds get collected, one to two are taken out of the deck, diminishing the probability they&#039;ll come up again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;TIP #3: &#039;&#039;Before taking your turn, make sure you haven&#039;t miscounted!&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;There is NO undo button!&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;TIP #4:&#039;&#039;&#039; Collecting Strategy: When collecting, consider other birds that could complete your &amp;amp; your opponent&#039;s next moves as well as your flock. &#039;&#039;If there are no good moves, better to draw or get a new hand - this discards your opponent&#039;s cards too, plus gives you 8 new cards and an extra move.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;TIP #5:&#039;&#039;&#039; Try not to give away good cards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;TIP #6:&#039;&#039;&#039; When you pick up, match as many cards in your hand as you can.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;TIP #7:&#039;&#039;&#039; Count the number of bird types in your hand. This tells you roughly how many plays until you can trigger a new hand.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;TIP #8:&#039;&#039;&#039; Discard Strategy: When you decline to draw new cards, this signals to your opponent that you&#039;ll trigger a new hand next turn. Because of this, you can decline to draw with two turns left and trick your opponent or at the very least, keep them guessing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;TIP #9:&#039;&#039;&#039; Always be aware of which birds you still need.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;TIP #10:&#039;&#039;&#039; It&#039;s a race, so don&#039;t waste plays.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
