ELINOR: "Feed the Birds"

ELINOR: It's
starting to snow!

[giggle]

ELINOR: Hmm...

[geese honking]

It's some geese flying
south for the winter.

Bye, geese! See
you next spring!

[bird chirping]
ELINOR: [gasp]

I know who that is!

ELINOR: Chicky!

I'm so glad to see you!

You're my favorite
chickadee bird friend.

[Chicky chirping]

ELINOR: You sound happy.

Chick-a-dee-dee-dee-dee!

[Chicky chirping]

ELINOR: Yum, that
berry looks yummy.

ELINOR: Bye, Chicky!

ELINOR: Oh, you're back?

Another berry?

You must be hungry.

RANGER RABBIT:
Elinor! Time to come in!

ELINOR: Coming Mom!

Bye Chicky!

ELINOR: Guess what, Mom.

I saw Chicky today.

RANGER RABBIT: Oh, your
chickadee bird friend?

How is she?

ELINOR: She's great...

But why is she still here?

RANGER RABBIT:
What do you mean?

ELINOR: Ms. Mole said birds fly
south where it's warm in winter,

because it's hard to find
food when the snow comes.

RANGER RABBIT:
That's true.

ELINOR: So why didn't
Chicky fly south...

like the geese
I saw today?

RANGER RABBIT: Well, not all
birds fly somewhere warm...

for the winter, Elinor.

Lots of birds stay
here, not just Chicky.

The ones that stay are the
ones who can find food.

Now, have a good
sleep, honey bunny.

I'll see you in
the morning.

RANGER RABBIT:
Sweet dreams.

ELINOR: But how is Chicky going
to find food with all this snow?
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=MPEGTS:198018,LOCAL:00:00:00.000

ELINOR: Wow!

Look at all the snow!

ELINOR: Uh-oh. That's the bush
where Chicky got the berries.

It's covered
in snow now.

ELINOR: Chicky?

Where are you?

Chicky!

ARI: Hey Elinor, [munching]
what are you doing?

ELINOR: Oh, hi Ari,
hi Olive.

I'm looking for my
friend Chicky.

Chickeeeee!

OLIVE: Oh, you mean
the little bird

with the pretty black
feathers in her head?

ELINOR: Yep, that's her.

OLIVE: I love her.

She's sooo friendly.

ARI: But don't birds fly
south in the winter?

ELINOR: Not all of them.

My Mom said some
birds stay here.

OLIVE: Ari, what
are you eating?

ARI: Sunflower seeds!
Want some?

KIDS: Sure!

ELINOR: I'm a little
worried about Chicky.

OLIVE: Why?

ELINOR: Yesterday I saw
her picking some berries

from that little berry-bush.

ARI: What bush?

I don't see any bush.

Just a lump of sno...

Ooooh, I get it.

OLIVE: Chicky's berry-bush
is covered in snow.

ARI: Yep.

Everything is
covered in snow.

OLIVE: Then how is Chicky
going to find berries?

Or any kind of food?

ELINOR: My mom said birds
that stay here can find food,

but I don't see how they can
do it with all this snow.

OLIVE: Huh.

ELINOR: I know!

I'll get my binoculars, and
we'll see if we can find Chicky.

We need more
observations!

OLIVE: So how do birds
find food in winter?

ARI: Maybe they
order pizza.

OLIVE: Mmmm, I don't
think birds have phones.

ARI: Right, good point.

OLIVE: I know.

Maybe they put their food
in lunch boxes, like we do.

ARI: Maybe.

But how would
they carry them?

They're way too big.

OLIVE: You're right.

Maybe they have
backpacks.

ELINOR: Look!

I see something
fluttering in the trees!

OLIVE: Let's go
check it out.

ELINOR: C'mon!

ELINOR: Over there!

Those birds are
eating some berries.

KIDS: [laugh]

OLIVE: And that bird is pulling
some bugs out of the tree.

KIDS: Wow! Cool!

ARI: And look those birds are
eating seeds from a sunflower.

ARI: [munching] [giggle]

OLIVE: [giggle]
ELINOR: C'mon!

OLIVE: Wow. Winter
Birds find food...

in all kinds
of hidden places.

Berries, bugs in trees,
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=MPEGTS:198018,LOCAL:00:00:00.000

Berries, bugs in trees,

sunflowers left
over from summer.

ARI: [munching]
Anywhere they can.

ELINOR: That is
so interesting!

But what about
Chicky?

We still don't know where
she's getting her food.

[Chicky chirping]
ELINOR: [gasp]

ELINOR: That's chicky!

I know it's her because
she always goes...

Chick-a-dee-dee-dee-dee!

C'mon!

ARI: There she is!

OLIVE: What's she doing?

ARI: I'll take a
closer look.

ARI: Hey!

There are seeds and
berries inside this tree.

ELINOR: I'll bet Chicky
put them there.

I saw her flying off with
berries in her beak yesterday.

OLIVE: Smart Chicky!

It's like her own little
tree lunch box...

so I was sorta right.

ARI: So that's how she gets
food during the winter.

When she's hungry she just goes
to the tree and gets some.

B-uut I noticed there weren't
many seeds in that hole.

ELINOR: Uh-oh.

What if Chicky runs out of food
before the end of the winter?

OLIVE: I know!

Let's give her some of
our sunflower seeds...

ARI: Great idea.

OLIVE: Here you go Chicky,
some nice seeds for you.

[Chicky chirping]

OLIVE: [low gasp]

KIDS: [gasp]
Whoa!

OLIVE: She landed on me!

She landed on me!

I can't believe
Chicky landed on me!!

ELINOR: Let's go
tell my Mom!

OLIVE: [giggle]

ELINOR: ...and then we
saw birds looking for food

in all kinds of cool
places, Mom.

ARI: Like bugs
inside trees...

OLIVE: And leftover
apples...

RANGER RABBIT: Yep, it's
tricky but birds who stay here

in winter find food
anywhere they can.

That's called foraging, when you
look in all kinds of places.

Like when Chicky foraged
for sunflower seeds

on Olive's trunk!

KIDS: [giggle]

ELINOR: Wait a minute, I know
how we can help Chicky.

Let's build bird-feeders so
Chicky and other birds

can get more
food in winter.

ARI: But what will we
make them out of?

OLIVE: I know, let's
"forage" around the house

and look for things we can
use to make bird-feeders.

RANGER RABBIT:
That's a fabulous plan!

Forage away, kids!

OLIVE: Finished!

ELINOR: You made a milk carton
into a birdfeeder house...

That is so smart, Olive!

OLIVE: Oh, this isn't
just a house...

ARI: It's a
birdfeeder library!

Nice!

OLIVE: This way the birds
will have something to read

while they have
a snack!

KIDS: [giggle]

ARI: I made a flying saucer bird
feeder from two paper plates.

The top plate is the roof,
and the bottom plate...

is for the seeds...

Beep-boop-boop-beep.
Beep-beep-beep-boop.

Beep-boop-boop...

Take us to your
birdseed.

OLIVE: [giggle] Let's
see your birdfeeder, Elinor.

ELINOR: Here it is!

OLIVE: It looks just
like Chicky's tree!

ELINOR: I made it out of
a paper-towel roll.

You just pour the
food in the top...

and it comes out this
hole on the side.

ARI: Cool!

There sure are lots of different
ways to make a birdfeeder.

OLIVE: Hmm...

Now we just have to
fill them up with food.

Ari? Can we have some of
your sunflower seeds,

pleeeease?

ARI: Sure thing!

Uh oh.

We ate them all.

OLIVE: Oh no!

Now what are we
going to do?

RANGER RABBIT: [giggle]
Hmmm, sunflower seeds, eh.

ELINOR: Mom! You have
a secret hiding place!

OLIVE: Just like Chicky.

KIDS: [giggle]

ELINOR: Thanks, Mom.

What else do birds
like to eat, Olive?

OLIVE: Uhhh, apples.

RANGER RABBIT: I have
some apples right here.

I'll cut up some slices.

OLIVE: And bugs!

RANGER RABBIT: Sorry, kids.

No bugs in my kitchen.

KIDS: [laughter]

ARI: There we are...

Wooo-hoo!

OLIVE: Perfect.
Nice work Ari.

Hmm..

Now all we need is...

[bird chirping]

ELINOR: It's Chicky!!

[Chicky chirping]

OLIVE: Look! She's using the
birdfeeder you made, Elinor!

ELINOR: And so are
all her bird friends!

ARI: Take as much food
as you want, birdies!

OLIVE: We made these
special bird-feeders...

from all the stuff we
foraged around the house.

ARI: Uh-huh.

That's right,
we foraged.

[stomach growl]

Wow, watching those birds
makes me huuuungry.

OLIVE: Maybe we should
build an Ari-feeder next!

KIDS: [giggle]

ELINOR: Senor Tapir,

how do chickadees keep
warm in the winter?

They don't have winter
coats or fur like us.

SENOR TAPIR: You
know what, Elinor,

a scientist named Richard Hill
had the same question.

Lights please.

KIDS: [cheer]

SR. TAPIR: And that's a
song about a scientist...

who explored the ocean!

ELINOR: We love your songs
about scientists, Sr. Tapir.

ARI: My favorites
are the ones...

where you sing about a
scientist who explores..!

And then they
ask questions..!

And then they
discover something!

SR. TAPIR: Ha ha!

Yes, isn't learning
about scientists fun?

I'm so glad you
like them.

And I love playing and sharing
these songs with all of you.

ELINOR: Will you sing
us another one, Sr. Tapir?

SR. TAPIR: Awww,
I would love to, Elinor,

but I have to tell you
something important.

OLIVE: What is it
Sr. Tapir?

SR. TAPIR: The time has come
for me to leave Animal Town.

KIDS: What? Why?

KOA: That's a bummer.

ELINOR: You're leaving?

SR. TAPIR: Yes, tomorrow
I'm sad to say.

Now that winter is coming,

it's time for me to
go to another town.

ARI: To another town?

OLIVE: But... why?

SR. TAPIR: Well, it's
my job, you see.

I'm a traveling musical
instrument sales-animal,

and my job is to go from
town to town playing music

and sharing these wonderful
instruments with everyone.
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=MPEGTS:198018,LOCAL:00:00:00.000

and sharing these wonderful
instruments with everyone.

OLIVE: I hope they love your
songs as much as we do.

ELINOR: Yeah!

SR. TAPIR: Aw,
thank you kids.

That really makes
my heart sing.

And you know how much
my heart likes to sing.

Hahaha!

SR. TAPIR: But
don't worry, kids,

I'll be back again
next year.

ARI: Woooaahhh?
Next year?

I can't wait
that long!

SR. TAPIR: [chuckle] I always
come back to Animal Town

in the Spring.

Before you know it, the
flowers will be in bloom

and you'll see me again.

Who knows, maybe I'll have
new songs to sing to you.

KIDS: Cool!
Whoa! Awesome!

SR. TAPIR: Well, I hope to
see you again tomorrow...

to say good bye
before I leave.

But now it's time
for you to go.

Thank you.

Muchas gracias.

[efforts]

SR. TAPIR: Adios!

ELINOR: Bye, Sr. Tapir!
See you tomorrow.

SR. TAPIR: See you later!

OLIVE: Brr, it is
getting kinda chilly.

It feels a little like
Winter already.

ELINOR: It's too bad Sr.
Tapir has to leave.

ARI: Yeah, who's gonna sing us
songs about scientists now?

ELINOR: Hey! I know.

Why don't we do something
special for Sr. Tapir

before he leaves?

OLIVE: Great idea, Elinor!

He's always doing
nice things for us.

We should do something
nice for him.

But, what
should we do?

ARI: Hmm...

RANGER RABBIT: Hi, kids.

You look like you're trying to
figure something out.

ELINOR: Mom, Sr. Tapir
is leaving tomorrow.

RANGER RABBIT:
Yes, I heard.

I bet you kids
must be sad.

OLIVE: Yeah, we're really
going to miss him.

ELINOR: Mom, we want to give
Sr. Tapir something special.

RANGER RABBIT: That's
very sweet of you, kids.

I'm sure you'll find just the
right thing to give Sr. Tapir

before he leaves
tomorrow.

ELINOR: I hope so.

OLIVE: It's gime
to get home.

Good night, Elinor,
good night Ranger Rabbit!

ARI: Bye! Bye!

ELINOR: See you tomorrow!

[birds singing]

ELINOR: Huh?
What's that?

[birds singing]

ELINOR: Hmmm, I wonder
what those sounds are.

MR. RABBIT: [snoring]

ELINOR: Mom!

RANGER RABBIT: Huh? Ha?

What is it, dear?

ELINOR: I heard an interesting
sound outside that woke me up!

RANGER RABBIT: Hmmm.

What kind of
sound was it?

ELINOR: I don't know!

I want to go outside
and find out.

Will you come
with me, Mom?
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=MPEGTS:198018,LOCAL:00:00:00.000

Will you come
with me, Mom?

RANGER RABBIT: [yawn] Well,
I guess it's never too early

in the morning to
be curious, is it?

ELINOR: Yay!

[bird singing]

There are the
sounds again.

C'mon, we need
more obser...

DAD: [snoring]

RANGER RABBIT: Shhhh.

ELINOR: We need more
observations!

RANGER RABBIT: [yawns]

[bird singing]

ELINOR: [gasp]

[bird singing]
ELINOR: There it is!

That's the sound
I heard!

RANGER RABBIT: That is
an interesting sound.

What do you
think it is?

ELINOR: I don't know.

I don't think I've
ever heard it before.

[bird singing]

ELINOR: There it is again.

I think it's coming
from over there.

RANGER RABBIT: I
think you're right.

[♪♪♪]

[bird singing]

ELINOR: Look, it's those
birds in the tree

that are making
the sound.

RANGER RABBIT: Mm-hmm.

Those are Wood Thrushes
and Magnolia Warblers.

ELINOR: But Mom, I've
never heard a bird

make those sounds before.

Birds usually sound
like chirp chirp...

chirp-chirp-chirp chirp
chirp-chirp-chirp.

These sound more like
cheep cheep cheep cheep.

I wonder why do these
birds sound different?

RANGER RABBIT: Keep
observing, Elinor,

I think you might
find out soon.

[bird singing]

ELINOR: Wow, look at that
all those birds leaving.

It looks like they're all
going the same way.

ELINOR: [gasp] Mom, are the
birds leaving for the Winter,

like Sr. Tapir?

RANGER RABBIT:
Yes, they are.

They're migrating.

You see, some birds
don't like the cold,

so when it's almost Winter, they
fly away somewhere warmer.

ELINOR: Migrating...

RANGER: Yes, these birds are
on their way there now.

ELINOR: [gasp]

Is that why they are
making that special sound?

Because they're on a trip?

RANGER RABBIT: Yes!

Some birds make a
special sound, or call,

when they're flying
together for the winter.

[birds singing]

RANGER RABBIT:
What's wrong, Elinor?

ELINOR: I'm just a little sad
that the birds are leaving,

just like Sr. Tapir.

RANGER RABBIT: Oh,
don't worry, Elinor.

The birds and Sr. Tapir will
come back again next year.

Sometimes things
in Nature leave,

but then they come back.

ELINOR: Yeah.

It's nice that the birds
make special sounds...

when they go on a trip.

RANGER RABBIT: Mmhm!

ELINOR: Mom, that's it!

I think I know what we can give
Sr. Tapir before he leaves.

C'mon!

MR RACCOON: Well,
have a good trip, Sr Tapir.

Here, I baked you some
fresh snacks for your trip.

SR. TAPIR: Wow, thank you,
Mr. Raccoon!
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=MPEGTS:198018,LOCAL:00:00:00.000

SR. TAPIR: Wow, thank you,
Mr. Raccoon!

I should sing a song about how
yummy your treats are.

MR RACCOON: Oh,
well thank you.

I do bake the best
treats in town.

Of course, I am
the only baker in town.

MS. LLAMA: Thanks for all of
your beautiful songs,

Sr. Tapir.

SR. TAPIR: Thank you,
Ms. Llama.

I'll miss your fruits and
your special sauces.

Muy deliciosas!

MS. LLAMA: Aww, gee...

SR. TAPIR: Well, now
it's time for me to go!

ELINOR: Sr. Tapir!
Sr Tapir!

SR. TAPIR: Elinor, kids!

I'm so glad you came
to say goodbye.

I didn't want to leave Animal
Town before saying Adios

one last time.

ELINOR: Sr. Tapir, we made
something special for you

to take on your trip.

SR. TAPIR:
Something special?

What is it?

ELINOR: Well, we were trying to
think of what to give you.

OLIVE: Because you're always
singing fun songs to us.

ELINOR: And then I heard an
interesting sound outside

that woke me up.

OLIVE: Yeah, Elinor
told us all about it.

It was birds, and they
were leaving too.

ARI: And when they
leave for the winter,

they make a
special bird call.

SR. TAPIR: That's
so interesting!

ELINOR: Yes it is!

So we had the idea to
make a special song...

for you for your trip.

Just like the birds
have a special call

when they go on a trip.

SR. TAPIR: How
wonderful, kids!

I can't wait
to hear it.

KIDS: Great! Yes! [giggle]
