Owl Babies by Martin Waddle and Patrick Benson

2
00:00:05,219 --> 00:00:13,160
Once there were three baby owls, Sarah and Percy and Bill.

3
00:00:13,699 --> 00:00:17,820
They lived in a hole in the trunk of a tree with their owl mother.

4
00:00:18,539 --> 00:00:22,300
The hole had twigs and leaves and owl feathers in it.

5
00:00:22,820 --> 00:00:24,079
It was their house.

6
00:00:27,809 --> 00:00:31,649
One night they woke up and their owl mother was gone.

7
00:00:32,390 --> 00:00:34,990
Where's mummy? asked Sarah.

8
00:00:34,990 --> 00:00:49,250
Oh my goodness, said Percy. I want my mummy, said Bill. The baby owls thought. All owls think a lot.

9
00:00:50,130 --> 00:00:59,969
I think she's gone hunting, said Sarah. To get us our food, said Percy. I want my mummy, said Bill.

10
00:00:59,969 --> 00:01:10,930
but their owl mother didn't come. The baby owls came out of their house and they sat on the tree

11
00:01:10,930 --> 00:01:24,799
and waited. A big branch for Sarah, a small branch for Percy and an old bit of ivy for Bill.

12
00:01:25,579 --> 00:01:39,040
She'll be back, said Sarah. Back soon, said Percy. I want my mummy, said Bill. It was dark in the wood

13
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:46,579
and they had to be brave for things moved all around them. She'll bring us mice and things

14
00:01:46,579 --> 00:01:59,959
that are nice, said Sarah. I suppose so, said Percy. I want my mummy, said Bill. They sat and

15
00:01:59,959 --> 00:02:08,979
they thought. All owls think a lot. I think we should all sit on my branch, said Sarah and they

16
00:02:08,979 --> 00:02:27,349
did, all three together. Suppose she got lost, said Sarah. Or a fox got her, said Percy, said Bill.

17
00:02:27,990 --> 00:02:38,870
And the baby owls closed their owl eyes and wished their owl mother would come. And she came.

18
00:02:38,870 --> 00:02:49,800
Soft and silent, she swooped through the trees to Sarah and Percy and Bill

19
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:54,180
Mummy! they cried

20
00:02:54,180 --> 00:03:00,280
And they flapped and they danced and they bounced up and down on their branch

21
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:08,060
What's all the fuss? their owl mother asked

22
00:03:08,060 --> 00:03:10,159
You knew I'd come back

23
00:03:10,159 --> 00:03:14,439
The baby owls thought, all owls think a lot

24
00:03:14,439 --> 00:03:27,629
I knew it said Sarah and I knew it said Percy I love my mummy said Phil the end
