I'm a fun-loving duck And I love to play
Quickly waddling through the day
So much to see along the way And I'm so flappity
I'm a graceful goose And I love being me
I take my steps more thoughtfully
There's beauty in all I see
And I'm so elegant
You be you, and I'll be me
Duck and Goose We're Duck and Goose
"Duck and Goose and the Snowy Day."
Yahoo! Snow!
Duck, look at all this powdery snow.
It's so…
Exciting.
Peaceful.
It's the first snow of the season, Duck.
We have to play in it together.
Well, what do you know? That's just what I was thinking.
We're gonna have so much fun.
Whoa. Ooh, nice and slippery.
Whoa!
Thanks, Goose.
What is this? It's slippery like ice, but it's green.
I've never heard of green ice before.
Oh, no. Those are my leaves from my leaf collection.
Oh, I didn't know you collected leaves.
Only the lovely, large and leafy leaves.
We better put them away before they get buried in the snow.
Look what I found. Our winter hats.
Now we'll be toasty warm.
Come on, Duck.
We have to find something truly funderful to do in the snow together.
Let's roll down the hill and see if we can turn into giant snowballs.
That sounds…
Amazing!
Not very safe.
Oh.
Look at our snowy footprints, Duck.
Let's make more patterns in the snow.
Okay, Goose.
I'm making a smiley snow face.
I'm making a-- Whoa!
Mess.
Whoa.
That was kind of fun, Goose, but let's play something else together.
Something more… exciting.
Like a snowball fight.
May I?
Certainly. Just as soon as I make my snowball.
It's on.
Watch out. Here comes a super cold one.
-Hi-yah! -Whoa!
You missed me.
You got me, Duck.
I sure did.
I need a break from all this excitement, Duck.
Then I guess I'll have to have a snowball fight with myself.
I'm gonna get you with this snowball, Duck.
You can't get me.
It got me.
Goose, what are we doing?
Just enjoying the snowy view.
I could look at it all day.
Let me try.
Okay, Goose, ready for more snowballs?
I don't think so, Duck.
That was fun, but I don't wanna run around in the snow anymore.
Please, please, please, please, please!
We need to find something we can play with together.
I know something peaceful that we can do together.
Build something out of the snow.
Like a snow duck.
A duck? Like me? Out of snow?
Now you're talking.
Not here, Duck. We have to find the perfect spot.
And where's that?
I'm not certain, but I'll know it when I see it.
I found it, Duck. The perfect spot.
Our snow duck will have a magnificent view of the meadow from here.
View? Do snow ducks even have eyes?
Ours will.
Runaway snowball!
That was actually kind of fun.
-Hi-yah. -Let's get started.
And done.
-We're not done, Duck. -We're not?
Goodness, no.
Our snow duck doesn't look like a duck yet.
Now that you mention it, it is pretty blobby for a duck.
And definitely not handsome enough.
It needs…
A bill and webbed feet like me.
This sure does take a while though.
Is it done now, Goose?
Not yet, Duck.
-How about now? -Not yet, Duck.
-How about now? -Yes, Duck.
Great. Nice to meet you, snow duck.
What do you want to do next?
It needs something else.
I know, we can dress him for winter.
So he doesn't get cold.
You want to give our snow duck
winter clothes so he doesn't get cold?
Indeed.
I'll get a scarf.
Get a warm scarf.
It sure looks like a duck now.
Let's start again.
No, thanks.
Why? You're not having fun making a snow duck?
It was fun, but I think we can find something
even more exciting to do in the snow together.
Like what?
Come on, I'll show ya.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Ice-skating. Now this is some exciting stuff.
-Whoa. -Whoa!
Duck, I don't think ice-skating's for me.
I wanna do something a little bit more peaceful.
Peaceful? Not my idea of fun.
I like to do. You know, move, move, move.
I'd rather gaze at the frosty-covered tree branches,
but I can't do that while I'm waddling all over the place
like a-- like a silly goose.
Friends don't always have to agree.
You be you, and I'll be me.
Okay, then. See you later, Goose.
I guess I'll skate around the pond for a while?
Duck, you just gave me a brilliant idea.
I did?
Of course I did.
Wait, what's the brilliant idea?
I know a way we can play in the snow together.
One word. Sledding.
Sledding?
But you just said you wanted to do something peaceful.
I do.
What could be more peaceful than sitting on a sled
watching all the beautiful snowy scenery go by?
But, Goose, sledding is really exciting.
You zip and zoom down the hill in the slippery snow.
Exactly, it will be exciting for you and peaceful for me.
And we can do it together!
No time to dawdle, we've got to waddle.
There's just one problem, Duck.
-What's that? -We don't have sleds.
Oh, that is a problem.
Oh, I know what will make the best sleds.
Your lovely, leafy, large, leafy…
-Did I say leafy yet? -Twice.
You mean my leaf collection?
That's it!
You're right, Duck. My leaves are big and slippery.
To the hill, my fine, feathered friend. To the hill.
Whoa!
Ready, Goose?
Ready, Duck.
On your mark.
Get set.
Go!
Sweet!
Whoa.
Wow, pretty.
Whoa.
Yeah!
Duck?
Duck, where are you?
Over here.
There you are.
That was quack-tacular.
It was so zippy and slidey and zoomy and the-- Wow!
And my ride was so lovely and peaceful and breezy and-- Wow.
Wanna go again?
Definitely.
I'm glad you're you, Duck.
Your slipping and sliding helped me think of sledding.
And I'm glad you're you, Goose.
Thanks to your leaf collection
we were finally able to find something we both love to do together.
Two bills.
Four webbed feet.
-And a lot of feathers. -Make our different ideas…
Even better.
-Yay! -Yeah!
"Duck and Goose and the Flower Bud."
Yeah!
Quack-tastic catch, Goose.
Thank you, Duck.
Get ready, I'm gonna throw this pine cone in a whole new way.
Splendid, Duck.
How?
With my eyes closed. I call it the…
no looky.
Looks like the wind wants to play with us too.
Okay, I have another idea for a throw.
But let's huddle up for it because it's gonna be really hard to catch.
Harder than the no looky?
Yep.
For this one you're gonna zig one way, then zag the other way, then go long.
Zig, zag, go long.
Break!
I call this one the zig, zag, long gone.
Zig, zag, go long.
Zig, zag, go…
Look, Duck, flowers.
You're smelling especially sweet today.
Zig. Zag. Long gone!
Whoa!
Duck. I almost had it.
I know, Goose, but you missed it because you stopped to smell the flowers.
Smelling flowers is the best reason to stop.
You should try it sometime.
Maybe I'll try after we find that pine cone.
I wonder where the pine cone is.
It rolled over there.
I found the pine cone.
And I found something else too.
It's a flower bud and it's all by itself.
I wonder why he hasn't bloomed into a flower
like all the others in the meadow.
I don't know.
Perhaps I should show him how.
Look at me, I'm a flower.
A pretty, pretty flower.
Don't you wanna be a pretty flower too?
Flower buds don't talk, Goose.
Perhaps not, but this little buddy of ours might be able to hear us.
Hey, Duck, let's call him Buddy.
Buddy, it is.
Well, it looks like Buddy needs more time before he blooms.
Let's get back to playing catch.
Let's do the zig, zag, long gone again.
Yeah!
We'll be back soon, Buddy, to see you bloom.
Get ready.
Goose, you're not paying attention.
I'm sorry, Duck, but I don't want to miss Buddy blooming.
Oh, dear!
Glad to see you're okay, Buddy.
But you still haven't bloomed yet, have you?
And he's kinda droopy now.
That he is.
Why won't you bloom, Buddy? Are you sad?
I think he is.
Hey, Buddy, this is your lucky day
'cause Goose and I are going to cheer you right up.
Aren't we, Goose?
Let's give him a big hug.
Hugs are great cheerer-uppers.
I think we should dance for Buddy.
Shaking my tail feathers always cheers me up.
Friends don't always have to agree. You be you, and I'll be me.
Let's try my idea first.
Here comes a big hug for you, Buddy.
There.
How does that feel, Buddy?
Didn't work, but, um, Goose,
if you're giving hugs, uh, I'll take one.
Yeah.
Thanks, Goose.
Now, let's try my idea!
Silly dancing!
Whoa!
Get your own hat, mister wind.
Perhaps Buddy won't bloom because he's cold from all the wind.
Maybe.
Maybe my scarf will warm him up. I don't need it anyway.
My hat keeps me nice and warm.
There. Now we wait.
We napped!
Guess it doesn't matter. Buddy's still a bud.
Scarf didn't work. Well, it was worth a try.
He's droopier.
Droopier isn't good.
The sun is almost gone. I think it's time to go home, Duck.
Don't worry, Buddy.
We'll be back tomorrow to help you bloom.
Buddy looks so lonely all by himself.
-Why are you stopping, Duck? -You told me to.
I did?
Smelling flowers is the best reason to stop, you said.
Look, Goose, this flower is completely uprooted.
Indeed, it is.
We better replant him so he doesn't get sick.
We'll get you back in the ground real soon, Rooty.
Rooty because he's got big roots.
Just like Buddy is Buddy because he's a bud.
Hey, Rooty here is just like Buddy. All by himself.
Oh, that's why Buddy hasn't bloomed. He's lonely.
Goose, I have a quack-tacular idea.
Let's replant Rooty with Buddy so they can be buds.
I mean, flower buddies. Or-- I mean-- Well, you know what I mean.
Yes, sirree.
Buddy can keep an eye on Rooty
to make sure he stays planted and won't blow away.
If Rooty's keeping Buddy company, maybe he'll bloom.
Did you hear that, Rooty?
We're gonna plant you near a friend of ours.
We better hurry though,
flowers aren't supposed to be out of the soil for very long.
No time to dawdle, we've got to waddle.
We're back, Buddy, and we brought you a friend. Rooty.
Buddy, Rooty. Rooty, Buddy.
I'm not sure they like each other.
Maybe they just need some time,
you know, to get to know one another better.
Yeah, but we better hurry and plant Rooty right now.
This calls for some quick digging skills.
We'll get Rooty in the ground before you can say
quackity, quackity, honk, honk, honk.
The ground is really hard. This might take a while.
But we don't have much time.
I have an idea, Goose.
You can hold me by my feet so I can dig up the ground with my bill.
Let's do it.
Come on, Goose, let's dig!
Whoa.
We did it!
Maybe you should replant him, Goose.
Planting calls for a softer touch.
Agreed.
Let's tuck you in for the night, Rooty.
Hang in there, Rooty.
You're gonna be okay now that you've got a friend and neighbor.
Now we wait again.
Perhaps by the morning, Buddy will be blooming.
I hope so, Goose.
Let's go to our nests and get some sleep.
I hope Rooty and Buddy are doing okay now that they have company.
Me too. We'll know more tomorrow.
Sweet dreams, Duck.
Yeah.
Night, Goose.
Let's go!
Yeah.
Let's go see how Buddy and Rooty are doing.
It didn't work, Goose.
Oh, no.
Buddy hasn't bloomed. He's still just a bud.
Well, we tried our best, Duck.
Look, Goose.
Buddy and Rooty are just waking up.
Quackity quack. Buddy is blooming!
Honkarrific, Duck, we did it!
Hey, these flowers look just like us, Goose.
One's yellow and the other's white.
They are just like us, really different but great friends anyway.
I'm glad you're you, Goose.
You carefully planted Rooty in the ground and were so gentle with his roots.
And I'm glad you're you, Duck.
You dug so fast we were able to get Rooty in the ground
so he could make friends with Buddy.
-Two bills. -Four webbed feet.
-And a lot of feathers. -Make our different ideas…
Even better.
Guess you won't be needing this anymore.
You're doing just fine without it.
We'll come back to visit you two.
Yeah, like all the time.
-Bye-bye! -Good day, Buddy and Rooty.
Did those flowers just wave at us?
I don't know, Duck, it's probably just the wind.
Yeah, probably.
