Winter Birds: a free large-print word search

Winter birds word search, free and large-print, where cardinals, chickadees, and juncos brave the frost at a snow-dusted feeder.

About Winter Birds

When snow settles on the branches and the yard grows quiet, the birds that stay behind become the brightest thing in the landscape, a flash of red cardinal against white bark, a chickadee hanging upside-down to reach the suet cake. Winter feeders draw a faithful crowd: dark-eyed juncos scratching below, nuthatches spiraling headfirst down the trunk, a tufted titmouse darting in and away. Keeping a feeder full on cold mornings is one of the simplest ways to feel genuinely useful to the wild world just outside the window.

How to play

  1. 1
    Find a word.Tap its first letter, then tap along to its last — the trail fills in and finishes itself when it spells a word. Or press the first letter and drag.
  2. 2
    Words run in straight lines.Across and down, and on the harder difficulties diagonally and backwards.
  3. 3
    It marks itself.Each word you find takes on its own soft colour on the grid and is crossed off the list.
  4. 4
    Choose a difficulty.Relaxed, Classic or Challenging set those directions and how much the word list helps — never the grid size. Tap the A buttons at the top to enlarge the letters, or pinch the grid.
