3DT Birds & Bees Generator – Blender Geometry Nodes

🎥 Demo Video

Bring your environments to life with swarming insects and flocks of birds using the 3DT Birds & Bees Generator!

Fully optimized for Blender 4.0+, this dual geometry node pack lets you generate buzzing swarms (bees, moths) that orbit around targets, and flocks of birds that follow animated paths — perfect for stylized worlds, nature scenes, and animations.

🎯 Key Features

Swarming Insects System
Spawn bees or moths around any target mesh, controlling distance, turn speed, flap speed, randomness, scale, density, and collision avoidance.

Flock Flight System
Animate bird flocks along curves with complete control over bird count, speed, scale, randomness, shape (arrow or blob formation), and animation looping.

Real-Time Ready
All systems work smoothly in Blender's viewport — real-time playback in Cycles and Eevee.

Glide and Flap Animation Settings
Adjust flap speed, flap angle, glide probability, and individual speed randomness for natural swarm and flight behaviors.

Light-Tracking Moths
Have swarms dynamically follow moving light sources for immersive animated environments.

🔥 Why You'll Love It

Instant Life for Scenes
From forests to fantasy cities, add buzzing insects and soaring birds to make worlds feel alive.

Fully Customizable Swarms
Easily tweak number of bugs, swarm size, random motion, and noise effects for each scene.

Perfect for Games, Animation, and Film
Create atmospheric background activity or direct attention naturally with moving flocks and swarms.

Flexible, Expandable Setup
Replace models with custom bugs, moths, or birds easily without modifying node logic.
