The Engineer shooing away a bird

Birds appear in all Valve-made maps (excluding all Arenas.) When a bird is attacked or touched by a player it will explode. The explosion causes no damage or knockback. Birds that have exploded will re-appear at the beginning of a new round.

There are 78 birds in total.

Bugs

  • There is a bird near the center of Well on a rafter that seemingly cannot be killed, as it is inside of a clip brush that blocks all weapons fire or entry. None of the other birds have this problem. This bird can only be killed through the use of noclip.
  • There is a bug that sometimes causes multiple birds to spawn at the same position with different rotations.

Trivia

  • Birds can be seen in a teaser image of Meet the Medic,[1] and the final panel of Meet the Director.[2]
  • Birds do not move, blink, or fly - they remain perfectly stationary until they explode. [3]
  • The in-game bird model does not have legs - rather two feet floating very closely to the bird's belly.
