This puzzle was set for Pencil Puzzle Madness, and I really loved how this puzzle came out.
This puzzle blends the genres Oyakodori and U-bahn, I really hope you enjoy this oddity.
_____
Place some birds (Black and white circles) and draw orthagonal paths through the grid such that all birds end in a nest (shaded domino) and all nests are full.
Each nest domino houses exactly one black and one white bird.
Black bird paths cannot intersect any path cells (including their own).
White bird paths MUST contain intersecting path cells. All birds move straight at intersections.
No bird may begin it's journey orthagonally adjacent to it's own nest.
Clues outside the main 10x10 grid show the exact quantity of each path shape in it's respective row or column, including rotations. Not all clues are given.
Solve on Sudokupad (no solution check)
Solution code: Quantity of starting postitions of birds in each column; 10 digits.
