My goodness...I have never even seen Bird's Opening. I can only imagine it would play somewhat like English, but I am sure it would not be comfortable on blacks end, thats for sure.
You can look through my game history. I've been playing the Bird almost exclusively for the past 2 months.
I'm by no means a great player. But my rating has climbed significantly since I started playing it. I've also gotten my biggest wins on RHP by using it.
Edit: Also, I've taken to playing the black-side of it as well. Answering f5 to my white opponents: 1.d4 Is there a name for this opening? I've been toying with it with almost abysmal results..
