Animated Flock of Mesh Birds - from Celestines Version 1.0
Celestines Flock of Geese
The Flock of Geese contains 7 geese that roams in a circle with a diameter of 50 meters. Each bird is low lag animated mesh and moves independently of the other birds making the flock look very realistic in flight. All in all the build has a land impact of 6.
The center prim is a dimpled sphere with animated water on it. You can use it as a small pond on your land or move it below ground level and make it disappear out of sight. it will however always be fairly easy to find so you can grab the geese when you need to rein them in.
All the build - mesh, prims, scripts and textures are 100% original custom made. It comes copyable and modifyable - except from the scripts (those are only copy).
Remember to keep a copy of the original if you change the build in any way!
You can modify the flock, change its size and tint its color (This way you can easily turn your flock of geese into a flock of vultures). You can even change the textures completely and make your flock of birds into an art statement. Enlarging the mesh parts of the build beyond what is in the original buy will increase the land impact though.

Impressive!
A great addition to my SL home. So well done. I did have to reduce the flight path to suit the width of my land (32m). I would have thought there would be a demand for that size?
Very modifiable!
I thought this was great when I first saw it, but after awhile, I wanted the birds to have a wider flight path, make some sound and become invisible at night. I made the following modifications and it works great!
Changed texture; added feet.
Made root prim a simple box with no animation, but substituted the rotation script so geese could fly furthest from that prim. Now they range nearly half my region.
Added an intermittent, day-time sound script in the lead goose.
Added a script to make geese go way (alpha/texture change) at night.
All the extra scripting did add 1 LI to the total, but by removing the "pond" animation script, it brought it back down to original 6. So yeah, great item! I don't mind tinkering with something I buy and appreciate that Celestine made this a copy/mod item!
