About this Mod

🐦 Ambient Birds

(Русскоязычное описание мода ниже)

Nine species of atmospheric birds quietly bring your world to life. They perch in the
biomes where they belong, sing, hop around and look about - and when you come close they
take off, fly away and fade into the distance. Flocks drift across the sky, seagulls circle
the coast, owls come out at night and woodpeckers cling to tree trunks. Seen from afar,
never in your way - just living scenery.

Fully client-side. Works on any server: only you see the birds, they never touch
gameplay or the server. No GeckoLib.

✨ Features

  • 9 species — sparrow, tit, crow, jay, lark, bullfinch, seagull, owl, woodpecker —
    each spawning in the biomes where it belongs (and a random one in modded biomes).
  • Living behaviour — perching, hopping, ambient songs, gentle head movement, a soft
    fade-in when they appear and a smooth take-off + fade-out when you approach.
  • Flocks fly by overhead, seagulls circle over water, owls appear at night,
    woodpeckers drum on trunks and forage on the ground.
  • In-game config screen (opens with a keybind "B"): perched birds / flocks, spawn frequency,
    flock height, chirp range, volume, shadow size, “through leaves”, and rebind the menu key.
  • Achievements & toasts for spotting and scaring birds.

🐦 Атмосферные птицы

Девять видов птиц тихо оживляют мир. Они садятся в «своих» биомах, поют, прыгают и
оглядываются - а когда подходишь ближе, взлетают, улетают и растворяются вдали. По небу
проходят стаи, чайки кружат у берега, ночью выходят совы, а дятлы цепляются за стволы.
Видно издалека, под ногами не мешают - просто живой фон.

Полностью клиентский мод. Работает на любом сервере: птиц видишь только ты, на
геймплей и сервер они не влияют. Без GeckoLib.

✨ Возможности

  • 9 видов — воробей, синица, ворона, сойка, жаворонок, снегирь, чайка, сова, дятел —
    каждый в подходящих биомах (а в модовых биомах появляется случайная птица).
  • Живое поведение — сидят, прыгают, поют, двигают головой, плавно проявляются при
    появлении и мягко взлетают с растворением при подходе.
  • Стаи пролетают по небу, чайки кружат над водой, совы выходят ночью,
    дятлы стучат по стволам и кормятся на земле.
  • Визуальное меню настроек (по клавише "И"): наземные птицы / стаи, частота появления,
    высота полёта стай, дальность пения, громкость, размер тени, «сквозь листву», смена
    клавиши меню.
  • Ачивки и тосты за наблюдение и спугивание птиц.
