# Audubon, a murmuration simulation
|
||
|
|
||
|
Some time ago, I read that the mechanism behind [starling
|
||
|
murmurations](https://www.lancswt.org.uk/blog/starling-murmuration-facts) was based on each bird
|
||
|
picking out a handful of buddies to stay near to, and then just doing that while trying to avoid
|
||
|
neighbors. So I decided to try to simulate that behavior here, using a low-poly model of a roasted
|
||
|
turkey because it's that time of year.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Run like `cargo run --release -- -t 500` to have 500 "toids" in the flock.
