Macaw Clay Lick Lab (2D)

Boid-flocking companion to the 3D lab: macaws gather at a riverbank clay lick on a plain canvas, balancing separation, alignment and cohesion while predator risk and coordination reshape the flock.

This 2D companion ports the same boid-flocking rules (separation, alignment, cohesion) as the 3D lab to a plain canvas view: macaws circle a riverbank clay lick, alignment and cohesion strengthen with the coordination slider, and rising predator risk scatters the flock and pulls it off the clay bank.

⚙ Under the hood

Canvas2D boid simulation — separation/alignment/cohesion forces plus a clay-lick attraction point, scaled live by population, predator risk and flock coordination.
