# 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. ![it's turkey time](./toids.png "it's turkey time")
