Editorial interest 83/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An interactive 3D flight simulator lets visitors explore Pau as a swift or swallow, with local landmarks, bird-life information, and VR support.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-28 issue.

For: Bird-curious visitors to Pau and VR flight-simulator players
Worth noticing: Controls include flock-joining, thermals, photo capture, and an unusually literal button for dropping bird poo.

Field notes

The guide is divided into four visible sections, including a seven-species overview, a flight-physics lab, and five guided expeditions. The simulator exposes controls for joining flocks and adjusting their density, alongside flight data such as speed and altitude. A photo studio and a sky-lighting panel provide additional modes; the page says it is connecting to local weather, but the extract does not confirm a live feed.
