Pix & Proverbs!
I thought it might be nice to make/have a thread to practise our knowledge of proverbs/ sayings/ expressions (proverbios/dichos/expresiones) in English and Spanish.
You can use the proverb of the language you like to practise, just mention in your post whether it is a proverb in English or Spanish (or both, because many times similar proverbs exist in both languages ) Just post one or two pix to symbolize the proverb/saying/expression. Other people can then try to guess which proverb it is you had in mind. You can give hints (dar pistas) also if you like. The person guessing it right can post a new proverb/saying and so on. Hope you'll enjoy this game! I'll go first with hopefully a not too difficult proverb/expression which exists both in English as in Spanish, but it's slightly different (though meaning the same).

Laura - you think of some good games. I think that your proverb is "A bird in hand is worth two in the bush...." Right?

I'm thinking the saying in English, in Spanish the images should be complitely different.
