# Fowl Play

**Fowl Play** is a mod that aims to improve Minecraft's ambience and make the world seem more alive, adding birds with realistic behaviours, sounds, and flying mechanics
Far from fluttering parrots and chickens, Fowl Play's birds can all take to the skies, be it hawks soaring majestically or sparrows darting between trees
Some birds provide much-needed ambience to forests, others can be tamed to help players, and all of them interact to create a living ecosystem!
## FAQ Where can I find information about the birds? You can visit the wiki **[here](https://github.com/aqariio/Fowl-Play/wiki)**, although it's currently under construction. In the future, I plan to add in-game documentation for the various birds as well. I found a bug! My game crashed! You can report bugs and crashes **[here](https://github.com/aqariio/Fowl-Play/issues/new?template=bug.yml)**! Can I use this mod in my modpack? Sure! Just make sure to credit me and link back to this page. I have a question! I have a suggestion!
