Version: 0.1.0-pre-alpha

Amber Pips are always busy: a few steps, a peck, a little hop, another peck. They never damage the grass they feed on. Sometimes a few of them attach themselves to a bison and follow in its tracks, picking at what the big animal stirs up.

One warning call is enough to send the whole flock scattering in every direction, whether the danger is a predator, a hit or a player sprinting past. When the threat is close, they duck into the nearest plant. Stand still, though, and their curiosity wins: they come back and look at you. Pips can be bred with seeds.
