| “ | From cavernous castles to flowery fields, Nature Notch challenges Kirby with a variety of terrain.” |

Nature Notch is the second level of Kirby: Squeak Squad. It follows Prism Plains and precedes Cushy Cloud.
General Information
Kirby reaches Nature Notch when King Dedede hurls him at the Squeaks after they flee his castle. He, along with the Squeaks, fall through a strange chasm, which is actually the passageway into Nature Notch. Like most areas of Dream Land, this level ranges from many environments. Most notable though is a large flower-covered field, followed by a large cave of shimmering crystals. Most known for its wide array of beautiful flowers, Nature Notch also features ancient architecture in the fields and the occasional tornado. The level also goes through a desert, an underground, magma-filled cave, and as a dispirited soil patch made home to the boss, Mrs. Moley. This level introduced the Metal ability, as well as the Bubble ability.
