Kids: ♪ max and ruby

- Duck, duck, goose!

Duck, duck, goose!

Duck, duck, goose.

- Okay, max.

We'll play duck, duck, goose one more time.

- But then we have to do

Our bunny scout winter bird tracking project.

- Duck, duck, goose!

- [Giggles]

We're playing. We're playing!

- Duck, duck, duck.

Goose!

[Laughs]

- Watch out, duck.

Here comes the goose.

Honk! Honk!

[Laughter]

- Max made it back first.

The duck wins again!

- Hey, bunny scouts!

Who's the best bird trackers in the world?

[Together] bunny scouts are!

[Laughter]

- Duck, duck, goose!

- Sorry, max.

We can't play anymore.

- If we get pictures of five different kinds of birds,

You know what we get?

[Together] our winter bird tracking badge!

- We have to look and listen very carefully

For any sign that the birds are around.

[Together] right!

- Do we have everything we need?

- I've got the camera.

- And I've got the bird tracking guide.

- Wow!

That'll make our job a lot easier.

- And so will this.

It's birdseed to attract the birds.

- Oh, great idea, ruby!

- All right, let's get tracking.

- Duck, duck, goose!

- I told you, max,

We can't play now.

- [Sighs]

- That's strange.

All the birdseed is gone.

I know I put it right--

Huh?

Max!

Your snowball picked up all our birdseed.

I guess we have to start over and put out some more seed.

[Bird chirps]

- Maybe not, ruby.

Look!

- [Gasps]

Check the book, valerie.

Check the book!

[Bird tweets]

That's it!

Look!

- You're right, ruby.

It's a purple finch!

[Camera clicks]

[Camera whirring]

All: wow!

[Ducks quacking]

[Goose honking]

- All right.

We've got one bird, four more to go.

- Duck, duck, goose!

- [Sighs]

I can't play duck, duck, goose now.

Why don't you try the playground?

Come on, max.

The playground is just as much fun in the winter

As it is in the summer.

There's the-- [bird chirping]

[Ruby gasps]

What was that?

Valerie, louise.

I found another bird.

- What did you see, ruby?

- It's not what I saw.

It's what I heard.

Listen.

[Bird chirping]

There!

- It sounds like it's saying,

"Chickadee-dee-dee."

- [Gasps]

There's a bird called a chickadee.

I saw it in the book.

- Now we just have to get it to come out.

- Use your birdseed, ruby.

- Good thinking, louise!

[Bird chirps in distance]

[Bird chirping]

[Ruby gasps]

Get a picture, louise.

- Oh.

[Camera clicks]

- That was amazing.

That's two winter birds.

Three more to find.

[Duck quacking]

[Goose honking]

We have to look and listen for any signs of a bird.

- Yes.

- Duck, duck, goose!

Duck, duck, goose.

- [Sighs]

Not yet, max.

We still need to find three more birds.

- [Sighs]

Duck, duck, goose.

- [Gasps]

Look what I found:

A beautiful red bird.

[Bird chirps]

- [Gasps]

It's a cardinal.

- It says they have

A very beautiful song.

- [Chirping beautifully]

[Camera clicks]

[Camera whirring]

[All sigh]

Now we've seen three birds.

Only two more to go.

I don't see any sign of birds over here.

- Nothing here either.

- Hmm.

Or here.

Ohh.

We need to find two more birds.

But how?

- [Gasps]

My birdseed.

It's gone!

- But there's a trail of seeds in the snow.

- Aha!

Max tracks.

[Gasps]

Max.

What are you doing with our birdseed?

- Duck, duck, goose.

- Wow!

- Look at that!

- [Gasps] I can't believe it!

So now we have a chickadee and a cardinal...

- A purple finch...

- And the ducks and a goose

Make five different kinds of birds.

- Oh, and that means we'll get our...

[Together] winter bird tracking badges!

[Camera clicks]

- Yup!

Thanks to max and his...

- Duck, duck, goose.

[Wind whistling]

[Laughter]

- Oh, what a beautiful winter day!

And this is the perfect spot

To build our snow bunny, don't you think, max?

- [Laughs]

- Sled?

- [Laughs]

Don't worry.

We're going sledding

Right after we make a snow bunny.

- Huh?

- Not just a normal snow bunny.

We're going to make a huge snow bunny.

And I can't do that without your help.

- Sled.

- Come on, max.

Help me roll up a big snowball

For the snow bunny's bottom.

Thanks, max.

This is getting

Really hard to roll.

Oh!

Now I see.

We're pushing it uphill!

We need to go back to where we started.

We'd better be careful

It doesn't get away from us.

You push on that side,

And I'll guide it from this side.

Okay, start pushing.

I've got it.

Keep pushing, max.

- Hi, ruby.

Hey, max.

- Hi.

- Roger!

- You coming sledding?

- Sure, right after we finish

Making a giant snow bunny.

- Uh-huh.

Sweet.

- Sled.

- [Gasps]

Stop!

[Sighs]

That was close.

Come on, max.

Let's finish our snow bunny.

- Sled?

- Max!

We can't leave him like this.

Look.

He's only got a bottom.

You don't want to leave our poor snow bunny

With no middle or head, do you?

- [Sighs]

- Look how huge the bottom is now.

We're going to make the biggest snow bunny ever.

And this is the perfect spot to build it, too:

Nice and flat.

This is just the right size

For the middle part of our snow bunny.

Can you help me lift it up?

Max?

Hmmm.

Aha.

Max!

You can't hide from me.

I can see your sled marks in the snow.

- [Gasps]

- Gotcha!

[Giggles]

- Sled.

- There'll be plenty of time for that later.

Right now, I really need your help

With our snow bunny.

There.

Why don't you make the head for our snow bunny?

And don't forget the big bunny ears.

I'll see what I can find to make the face.

- Sled.

Huh?

- Look what I found:

Some stones for his eyes and mouth

And a pinecone for his nose.

Let's get the snow bunny's head on first.

- [Sighs]

- I knew I couldn't do it without you.

Wow!

Want to give him a face?

Here, max.

Make sure he's smiling.

Good work, max.

[Giggles]

Oh!

I nearly forgot the arms.

I'll go find some branches.

Why don't you make a snowball

For the snow bunny's tail?

- Up here!

You coming, max?

- Roger!

- That sled is just what I need.

[Branch cracking]

[Laughing]

This will be perfect for our snow bunny's arms.

[Grunting]

See?

This is our biggest and best snow bunny ever.

Isn't it beautiful, max?

- Sled.

- Don't worry.

I haven't forgotten.

- Wahoo!

- Sled! Sled!

- Yes, yes, we're going to go sledding, max.

I'm just enjoying our snow bunny.

[Gasps]

- I can't stop now!

- Oh, no! Roger!

Don't hit our snow bunny!

- Sled!

- I can't look!

- Whoa, awesome.

- Roger?

Snow bunny!

[Gasps]

You're both okay.

- Uh-huh!

- Oh, no!

This is a terrible place for our snow bunny.

- Sled?

- Great idea, max.

- Yay! Yay!

- Ah, look at that smile.

Our snow bunny must be happy.

And he's nice and safe here, max,

Thanks to you and your...

- Sled!

- [Sighs]

Don't you just love snowflakes, max?

They're so beautiful.

See?

- Snowflake.

- These snowflakes are nice,

But I've got some that are really yummy.

Want to see?

Grandma and I baked three giant snowflake cookies.

- Snowflake!

- I'm going to decorate them

All by myself and surprise grandma.

I want them to be perfect,

So I have to make sure they're exactly the same.

- Snowflake.

- No way, max.

You can eat a cookie after I've decorated them.

Okay, time for an important decision.

I can use white icing,

Red sprinkles, and large sugar balls.

Hmmm.

Too christmas-y.

Or orange icing,

Green sprinkles,

And small sugar balls.

Eh, too summery.

Hmm.

Or pink icing, white sprinkles,

And medium sugar balls.

Perfect.

You can never go wrong with pink.

Hmm.

I'd better test the icing.

[Giggles]

[Doll cries]

[Doll cries]

[Ruby humming]

I can't wait to show my perfectly decorated

Snowflake cookies to grandma.

And it won't matter which cookie anyone chooses,

Because they'll all be exactly the same.

[Doll cries, icing spurts]

[Gasps]

Max.

Max.

Why is cry baby crying?

[Doll cries]

Huh?

Hmm.

Max.

What are you up to?

[Doll cries]

There, there.

Hush now, cry baby.

Hmm.

[Laughs]

- Snowflake.

- Step away from the cookies, max.

I told you,

You can eat a snowflake cookie

With grandma and me

After I finish decorating them.

Now please let me get back to work.

[Sighs]

Little brothers.

Hmm.

It's not too bad.

I can cover up this messy pink icing

With white sprinkles.

[Humming cheerfully]

- Snowflake.

- Perfect.

White sprinkles make these cookies

Look like real snowflakes.

Oh, but I need to be careful.

I have just enough white sprinkles

To make the other two cookies match this one.

[Gasps]

What are you doing?

- Snowflake.

- You're way off target, max,

And you made me spill all my white sprinkles.

[Sighs]

Why don't you play emergency mountain rescue

While I finish decorating the cookies?

I guess I'll just have to use green sprinkles.

[Helicopter blades chirping]

[Beeping]

Green and white sprinkles

Are definitely the way to go.

Time for silver balls.

Perfect.

[Humming cheerfully]



Hmm.

There.

Now all I need is a pretty plate

To serve them on.

[Helicopter blades whirring]

[Grunting]

Just the thing I was looking for.

Huh?

[Gasps]

Bring back that cookie, max!

Beep!

Oh, no!

[Sighs]

Now none of the cookies are the same.

- Yoo-hoo, ruby!

Is this the house for snowflake cookies?

- It was until max and his toys came along.

I wanted to surprise you

With perfectly decorated snowflake cookies,

But they didn't work out.

- They are perfect, ruby.

Only you would go to the trouble of making snowflake cookies

Just like the real thing.

- What do you mean, grandma?

- Well, everyone knows no two snowflakes are alike.

Look.

Every single one is different.

- All of my cookies are different too.

So each one is a perfect...

- Snowflake!
