- I play a lot of games but the one I prefer best is bird catching. First of all I get a lot of black sallyrods. Then make a square hoop of rods tied at each corner with string and put stick after stick until it reaches a narrow top. Then you get a bow, and tie it with string at the back of the bird creel. Then get a forkshaped stick and a tricker and put it standing up put a bit of food on the ground inside the bird-creel. Then if a bird comes it will leap up on the bow and the bird-creel will fall and the bird will not get out. The name of this article is called a bird-creel.
