When you're done doing what?

I'm taking pictures of every kind of flower in the park.

What for?

I want learn more about them.

Why there are so many different kinds?

Why there are so many different colors?

And why they smell so good?

Oh, that's easy.

'Cause they grow that way.

But why?

Natalia, you ask so many questions?

'Cause I want to know.

Do you know why?

Do you, Barney?

h*-h*-h*. Oh, hello!

-[all] Barney! -Hi, everyone.

So what's everyone doing on this beautiful day?

We're trying to figure out why Natalia always asks,

why? why? Why?

I don't always.

Why do you say that?

[all laugh]

Oh there's no better way to learn,

than by asking why?

Why is the sky so blue Barney?

Why do you always ask why Natalia?

I can't help it.

I want to know.

I wish I knew all the answers.

Maybe you'll grow up to be a scientist.

That's what scientists do, they find answers to questions

Yeah!

Hey Natalia take our picture.

All right. Stand by the tree.

Okay.

Now make sure you get my good side.

Say cheese!

[All] Cheese!

I can't stay like this forever.

Is something wrong Natalia?

What is that?

Huh?

Looks like an egg.

Better. Not touch it Joshua.

That's right. The mama might come back for it.

You should leave it alone.

Where could it have come from?

An Excellent question.

[laughing]

Well, some baby animals come from eggs

But what kind of animal lays such weird looking eggs?

I know, maybe the Easter bunny left it.

-Yeah right, -sure,

What could it be?

Oh, this might take some serious thinking.

Right, Barney.

Hmm... Let me think.

♪ I'd like to think of something ♪

♪ I never thought before

♪ If it doesn't happen right away ♪

♪ I'll think a little more

♪ I'll sit a little while

♪ Imagine what could be

♪ And a new idea might come to me ♪

[laughing]

I got it! We can check on a computer.

Oh, good idea.

We can learn many things on the Internet.

[All] Wow!

Okay.

Now let's see here.

Oh, here's a hummingbird.

She's so cute.

[Barney] Oh, and here are some hummingbird eggs.

They are so tiny.

Do you know what kind of eggs these are?

[kids] Mm, no. Not really.

Are those crocodiles?

That's right, Joshua.

These live in the country, Kenya in Africa.

-Not so cute. -Not so cute.

Oh, here's another one from Kenya, an ostrich.

[Joshua] And those are major eggs!

[Barney giggles] Right.

Hmm.

They're about the right size.

Maybe we found an ostrich egg!

Wish we could go to Kenya and check it out.

Hmm. Well a trip to Kenya...

[laughs]

-What t-errific idea! -[kids giggle]

All we need is a little imagination,

and he-lloo!

I thought there were jungles in Africa?

This doesn't look very jungley.

No, it's a very big place.

There are all kinds of countryside here.

Some jungle, some desert and some grass like this.

I hope we see a lion roar.

[groans]

Is that a lion?

Huh... aye yay, yay. I thought we'd never get here.

Yeah.

[all] BJ and Riff!

-Hi! -[all] Hi.

Now remember we came here to find out about the egg.

Maybe it's one of those over there.

Let's go see you.

Wow! would you look at the size of those eggs.

We saw one like that on the computer.

-They are ostrich eggs. -That's right.

They were laid here by ostrich on the animal preserve

Hi, Barney.

Oh hello, Ayira.

Welcome to Kenya.

[all] Thanks!

Ostrich, huh? I gotta see one of those.

You see any, cuz?

Ah nothing, beech.

Ostriches can't fly.

Oh, look how do they get around?

Most of the time they walk.

Sometimes they run very fast.

They have long legs and they're very tall.

They're even taller than me.

[all] Whoa!

Some animals here are big. Some are small.

These eggs are from sparrow.

We have this for, we live.

A Sparrow is a little bird, an Ostrich is a big bird.

Can you find some things that are big

and some that are little.

Here's a picture of the egg we found.

Do you know what kind it is?

It's very beautiful.

Looks like an Easter egg.

[kids giggle]

I thought that, too.

I've never seen an egg like it before,

but I have some friends who might know.

Oh, maybe it's an elephant egg.

I'm afraid elephants don't come from eggs, BJ.

Oh. Whoa!

-[drum beats] -Oh, wow, sir! Are those drums?

It's our dance troupe.

They put on dances for visitors at the buzzard.

Oh, I gotta see that.

-Yeah. -Yep!

Jambo, Ayira.

Jambo.

Well, Jambo means "hello" in Swahili.

Can you show my friends one of your dances?

Sure.

-All right! -Can't wait.

[laughs] Oh, this should be fun.

-[Riff] Oh, yeah. -Check out those drums.

[BJ] Oh, yeah.

-[Riff] Wow! -[BJ] Cool.

Here they come!

-[Riff] Oh, wow! -[BJ laughs]

[BJ] Oh, yeah!

Whoo-hoo!

Whoa!

[kids howling]

[BJ] Oh, man! I kinda wish I could drum like that!

[Riff] Oh, whoa!

[all] Jambo!

[drum beats]

[BJ] Oh, man!

[all] Jambo!

[applause]

That was nice.

That was some great drumming. High five.

And those dance moves.

Thanks everyone.

Kwaheri.

[all] Kwaheri!

Kwaheri, is how we say goodbye here.

[all] Kwaheri!

Do you live in a house like that, Ayira?

No, that is a traditional home.

Like they had in the old days.

I live in Nairobi.

Nairobi is a big city in Kenya.

My house is probably a lot like yours.

There are all kinds of different houses.

Why don't you show me some

Hey, everyone.

Here comes my friend, Jeff.

Oh my!

And he has a real life, living, breathing elephant!

Her name is Kamba.

How big is she?

She looks like is eight feet tall

[all] Wow!

That's right, Barney.

That's a lot of elephant.

What does she eat to grow so big?

Elephants are vegetarians.

That's right. Like grass and leaves and roots

and even tree bark.

She didn't hatch out an egg? Did she?

No she didn't.

How about you are one cool elephant.

Oh yes he is, really cool.

[Barney chuckles]

Oh, I don't think elephants make very good pets, BJ.

No, they really don't.

Yeah, you'd have to find a place for her to sleep--

Hey, where do elephants sleep anyway?

Anywhere they want.

[laughing]

[trainer] That's right, Barney.

But you know it's time for us to get down to the river,

its time for Kamba's bath.

-[kids] Bye! -[all] Bye-bye!

Bye. Bye, Kamba.

Bye, Kamba!

-[Kamba trumpets] -Whoa! [giggles]

Did you hear that?

I think she was talking to us.

Oh, I think she was saying goodbye.

-Oh, that's right! -[kids laugh]

[Riff] Yeah!

Hey, here comes my other friend Mark,

and he brought his other animal friend.

Now that is one big kitty cat.

It is.

This is Kitto and he's a serval cat.

Well, hello there, Kitto.

Will he grow bigger than this?

No there are medium sized cat here in Africa.

He's so beautiful!

Look at his fur and all his spots.

Wow! He even has spots on the his ears.

Why does he have such big ears?

The better to hear you with.

Did you know that serval can jump about feet in the air?

That's cool.

Usually they are nocturnal.

Well, that means they're wake during the night.

That's right, Barney.

They don't hatch from eggs, do they?

No they don't. But wait a sec I have another animal friend

that does come from an egg.

I wonder what it could be?

Anything but a crocodile.

Wow!

This is Bakar. And he hatched from an egg.

He's a bateleur eagle.

Bateleur is a French word for a tight-rope walker.

Oh, like in a circus?

Yes. When he flies he rocks from side to side

with his wings spread in the air.

And he looks like a tight rope walker

trying to keep his balance.

[kids laugh]

Why does he fly like that?

There goes Natalia, why why why.

It's a very good question.

They have really short tails, so they fly that way

to keep their balance.

Do you know what kind of animal would lay an egg like this?

It's not a bateleur egg.

It looks more like an Easter egg to me.

Yeah, to me too.

Guess we'll never find out what it is.

Well, always keep asking questions.

When I was little I wanted to know all the answers.

[other kids] Just like Natalia!

That's why I became a zoologist, it's a kind of scientist.

Keep it up, Natalia, and someday you might be a scientist too.

Oh, I hope so.

Then don't give up.

There's lots to learn about our beautiful world.

Good bye, and good luck.

-[all] Bye! -Bye bye.

[sighs]

Barney, we still don't know what kind of egg it is.

No, no. But like Mark said

if you keep asking questions,

you'll learn wonderful new things.

Well, it's getting late now.

We better get home, everyone.

Oh, and thank you, Ayira, for showing us all about Kenya.

You're welcome. Come back again.

Okay.

Actually, BJ and I are gonna stay a little longer.

Yeah. We wanna see that elephant again.

-You bet yah! -All right. Kwaheri .

[all] Kwaheri!

-Bye, guys! -Bye, BJ.

See you later.

Thanks, Barney. Had a fantastic time.

[other kids] Yeah.

Oh, you're very welcome.

It was great seeing Ayira and all those animals,

even if we didn't find out what kind of egg this is.

You'll find the answer someday.

No matter how old we grow, we always keep learning.

And the best part, is sharing the things that we learn,

with friends we love.
