The Birds' Tale
It's all for the birds as we join a singing contest in the big tree in the meadow. The Blue Jays kick everything off with a swinging rendition of "Blue Jay Boogie." After their song and dance, a bunch of Hummingbirds fly in to sing a sprightly Mozartian tune. Next up are the Parrots singing a calypso version of "Birdseed in Paradise" complete with conga line. The down-home posse of Woodpeckers flies in to sing "Red-Neck Birds Just A-Peckin' for a Livin'", a country number that includes a lively line dance. The Mockingbirds miss the point of the contest when they do what Mockingbirds do...copy other birds...with a medley of all the other birds' songs. Of course, this ruffles the other birds' feathers. So a flock of Doves flies in to explain that every bird should sing his own song. The Doves lead all the birds in singing a lovely ballad, "Sing Your Own Song." |
