Thankfully, there&#8217;s finally a game willing to properly reward my talents in wildlight photography: Flock Around, a multiplayer photography game that brings <del>friendslop<\/del> a Peak-like experience to birdwatching.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:1922px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.19%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"ZPiv8Yex6uAfRFYuRenp5G\" name=\"20251218170324_1\" alt=\"A 3-star photo of a Dark-eyed Junco in Flock Around.\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/this-birdwatching-take-on-pokemon-snap-says-my-awful-junco-photography-is-worth-6000-and-im-not-about-to-argue.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"1\" width=\"1922\" height=\"1080\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"inline expandable\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Secret Plan Games)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>After firing up the Flock Around demo <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/app\/4211680\/Flock_Around_Demo\/\">on Steam<\/a> and customizing my genre-standard colorful beanshaped avatar, I soon learned something about birds: They&#8217;re harder to photograph than Pok\u00e9mon. Pok\u00e9mon are hams. They&#8217;re preternaturally, lucratively photogenic, happy to gesticulate and partake in ritual combat for any casual observer. They&#8217;re also bigger than birds, even when they <em>are <\/em>birds, which helps.<\/p>\n<p>Still, after a minute or two of enduring the mocking melodies of my avian tormentors as they flitted out of sight, I managed to start snagging a few photos. My work, I&#8217;ll admit, isn&#8217;t exactly National Geographic quality. I was just content to get a Junco center frame. And really, who are we to force nature&#8217;s beauty to conform to our arbitrary notions of shot composition and general presentability?<\/p>\n<p>Luckily the Develop-o-Tron stations scattered around the demo&#8217;s bird sanctuary don&#8217;t have very high standards. They happily ate my middling bird shots, digested their qualities and characteristics, and awarded me with thousands of dollars for my efforts. That might sound like an excessive payday for subpar bird pics, but based on the $1500 price tag on the in-game hat I bought with my earnings, something tells me the economic situation in Flock Around is all sorts of busted.<\/p>\n<p>That said, I think a look like this is worth every penny:<\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:1922px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.19%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"9umyVHZbv6JEa5WLZg99QQ\" name=\"20251218165605_1\" alt=\"A player character in Flock Around wearing a hat and yellow shirt.
