I normally love Kev Walker's art but this...looks off.

Oh you'll pick it in Limited. It might not be your first pick, or your second, or even your twelfth, but by gum you'll pick it eventually. And it will stay in your opening hand, mocking you with its 2/2 4W awfulness, waiting, just waiting for you to get enough mana to play it just so you can see your opponent's face when you go all-in, tap out, and windmill slam this 2/2 Flyer on the table.

Garbage. Yes, it might be a very late pick in limited. It's still garbage.

Essentially the same as Welkin Guide, but without the Cleric creature type.

Absolutely hilarious when comboed with Intrepid Hero. Play this, target an opponent's 2 or 3 power creature, then activate Intrepid Hero, targeting said creature. Bonus style points if you yell out "PULL!" before you tap the Hero.

Pro Tip: Use this creature to pick up another creature that you own without flying.

Great flavor and mechanic (hero rides this eagle into battle!) but overcosted. I wish they'd work hard to get the mount mechanic down right (Griffin Rider works well), it's always been a great idea.

Weirdly, in my FNM playgroup, this was a "High-Pick" card.
I personally never took it, but truthfully, you get:
A: a 2/2 creature with evasion (and the ability to block evasion) and B: a Mighty Leap.
When I thought about it that way, this card can win you games.
But don't think about playing it anywhere else.

I'm rather new to MTG and need some help explaining this creatures ability.
When I play this card I must choose a target creature (or it self?), giving this creature +2/+2 and flying until end of round. But then what? Is the card discarded? Does it stay on the battlefield as a regular +2/+2 with flying? Can it be used next round on another creature?

Hi Rainly,
When you use this card, you pick a creature (any creature, it could be another creature you control, the bird itself, or even an opponent's creature) and give it +2/+2 until the end of the turn. After that, the bird stays on the battlefield and can be used to attack and defend, just like any other creature. It will be a 2/2 creature with flying.
