Bird's is not a good opening. It may seem to follow the rules of the opening, (I.e control the center) However it needlessly weakens your king. And in the long run will utterly give black the upper hand. Thus it is not played in higher levels of the game and thus nobody has written a book on it. I would recommend English, if you want to try to learn a opening like this.

The Bird can be a good opening.

If played properly, black does not get an upper hand.

It doesnt matter to the rest of us if it is, or isnt played at "higher levels".

Yes....books have been written on the Bird.

so aesthetically pleasing to see that pawn avalanche drown one of the former world champions.

White's first three moves clearly indicate an oblique and obverse rhombus of impingement together with a massing, in situ, of the centre primordial atoms and globular haloids (a parody on Franklin Young). tongue.pnggrin.png

Hi. I love bird's opening. That's my favourite opening. Give it a try once in a while with a little bit more of attention u dominate throughout.
