Overview

French Defense: Bird Invitation is a specific line in the Open Games family (ECO C00), arising from a recognised theoretical position.

The Open Games group covers open games — classical 1.e4 e5 openings where both sides contest the centre directly with pawns.

It is reached after 3 plies of play, with the move sequence 1. e4 e6 2. Bb5.

The line is a first-level refinement of French Defense.
