The Bush Birds game consists of 48 cards - four sets of 12 designs - depicting different native Australian birds commonly found in open forests and woodlands. The cards come in a sturdy 2 piece box.

Included are instructions on how to play a number of different games, such as Go Fish (Go Birding!), snap and memory games, as well as encouraging players to invent their own games with the cards. There are also four information cards with details about each bird.

The illustrations are all created from dry point etchings which have been hand-coloured with watercolour paints.

The cards are large in size to make handling easier for younger players.
