They both lie in the same group, which means the valency is alike. Although nitrogen lies at the top, where as bismuth is at the bottom of the Periodic Table. This signifies that the nitrogen forms covalent bonds more so, then does bismuth.

Basically:

- both not toxic

- both like to be in the 3+ oxidation state
