The Engineer shooing away a bird

Birds appear in all Valve-made maps, with the exception of Arena maps, Target and Item Test.

There are two types of bird, perched and flying. The perched birds do not move, blink, or fly; they remain perfectly stationary. When a perched 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. Flying birds appear when a player is killed, appearing to come from the corpse or gibs.

There are 78 perched birds in total.

Locations

Update history

  • Fixed a server crash triggered during entity cleanup.
  • [Undocumented] Added a new "Dove" model with flight animations.

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 or sticky jumping and hitting it with the Ullapool Caber.
