Echo Valley
|
|
Echo Valley is home to many plants and animals. Just a few of them are shown here. The valley grounds are covered with grasses and moss. Hollifer plants, Billious trees and Barbious Shrubs are found in abundance. The Amythyst Lillie, violet and poppies all provide food for the herbivores found in this land community. Herbivores include the Speckled Lizard, Spiked Porky, Cerano Mouse, Blue Floot, Celestial Hummingbird and the Flycatcher, who are all found in this valley. The Blue Floot enjoys a diet of fish and plant life. On occasion, the Spotted Barker makes an appearance in search of food, but he prefers the higher elevations of the mountain community.
