Spruce up with your Bedrock Minecraft world with an array of vanilla-style birds!

This addon adds a variety of biome-specific birds to increase the immersion and ambience of your Minecraft worlds!

Additionally, there are new items, and recipes designed to strengthen the immersion and survivability of your next survival world!

Some birds may be caught and relocated with an empty bucket. Bucketed birds can be placed back, giving the player back the empty bucket used to catch it.

Can you give the hummingbirds there real life variant and keep the colored ones
1
Which one's did you have in mind?
1
All of the hummingbirds
1
The hummingbirds I made were based on the actual nine clades of Hummingbirds, the Jacobins, Mountaingems, Mangos, Hermits, Giants, Bees, Emeralds, Brilliants, and Coquettes. From what I've seen, all hummingbirds fit into one of those nine groups. I'd have no problem adding a specific type of hummingbird as a rare variant, but I'm not reworking the whole system of birds if you can't name one.

As long as you credit me, I would be honored. Also if you would respond with links when the pack and trailer come out, I would love to see them.

Edit: My intentions with these packs has changed and I would appreciate if you excluded my addons from your modpack.

What is that kind of toucan that has a black bill with a little bit of blue and it’s in the back between toco toucan and keel billed toucan
1
Honestly, I made those textures a while ago just based on random google reference images. I believe it was based on the white-throated toucan after looking it up again.

My suggestions are:
Add different types of roosters and hens, in short chickens. These chickens aren't the normal one, roasters can be trained and feed well, they can used for rooster fights (a traditional gamble in the Philippines and other parts of Asia). Add common to rare chicken variants with different strength, speed, and health. You should add fighting animations for chicken. Make some birds breedable, they will spawn an egg which will eventually turn to a baby version of the bird. Additionally, you could add powerful chickens like ender chicken, or desert chicken, that can use abilities on rooster fights and also have different traits depending on its environment. That is my suggestion, thank you and take your time.

At least for this addon, I'm trying to keep the selection of birds to be as realistic and varied as possible. The idea of raising different types of chicken for fights is hilarious though and that would definitely be a fun project to work on down the road.

Maybe add oilbirds and swiftlets to lush caves and dripstone caves, canaries to deserts, plains, meadows, forests, beaches, and birch forests, ravens, crows, and hawks to all surface terrestrial biomes, chickadees to all taigas, sparrows, pigeons, and finches to villages, eagles and ospreys to beaches and swamps, and flamingoes and herons to swamps.

Thank you for the suggestion! I hadn't thought about adding bird to caves, but after looking into oilbirds that is something I'm really considering. I did have plans to add types of cranes to swamps and hawks are definitely on my list.
