Derevi Bird Tribal

[orchid crown]

Hello fellow brewers! I just got a new and fresh Derevi from Bloomburrow special booster pack and it inspired me to see if I can create a semi-budget list that focuses on birds(with some subthemes sprinkled here and there). After looking at my collection I gathered my currently own cards that would fit the archetype. How would you go about expanding the list? What subthemes would work well with those chirping children of nature? I would love your takes and contribution. PS: I aleready got basics, didnt put them in the list bc I dont know yet how many would I play. https://www.moxfield.com/decks/8Ew8u3sY0E-AwYhqX-JbOw
