Animated footprints move around houses and buildings on a hill. To the upper left of the hill, an animated cloud blocks the edge of a sun. Snowflakes fall from the cloud. Beneath the snowflakes, a dark blue cloud floats. To the upper right of the hill, snowflakes fall from a cloud. Beneath that, a second snow cloud floats by a crescent moon. Text reads “Let’s go for a Walk.”
[Footsteps, chimes]
[Upbeat music plays]
Ranger Hamza sits on a chair on the front porch of a wooden hut. Two potted plants are on a wooden table beside him. Ranger Hamza wears his long black hair tied away from his face. He wears a red shirt and holds a pair of scissors.
Ranger Hamza says, HI THERE, I'M RANGER HAMZA.
AN IMPORTANT PART OF MY JOB
IS LEARNING ABOUT ALL
THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF PLANTS
GROWING AROUND US.
HERE'S SOME PARSLEY
I'VE BEEN GROWING.
Ranger Hamza snips a piece of parsley off a plant.
He says, I'M GOING ON A WALK TODAY
TO THE CITY FARM AND I'M TAKING SOME
PARSLEY WITH ME, AS A TREAT FOR THE RABBITS.
USUALLY, THEY EAT
HAY AND VEGETABLES.
BUT LIKE US, THEY'RE ALLOWED
A TREAT EVERY NOW AND THEN.
THIS IS NICE AND HEALTHY FOR THEM,
AS LONG AS THEY
DON'T MUNCH TOO MUCH.
He smiles.
Ranger Hamza says, COME ON, LET'S GO FOR A WALK.
Animated trees appear in front of Ranger Hamza.
[Pop, pop]
Ranger Hamza narrates,
TODAY'S RAMBLERS ARE DANIEL,
Daniel wears a bright orange shirt. He has short brown hair and holds hands with the boy beside him as they walk.
Ranger Hamza narrates, ARCHIE,
Archie has short brown hair and wears an orange shirt.
Ranger Hamza narrates, AND SALLY.
Sally smiles. She wears her black hair tied back with a bright green bow. Sally wears an orange shirt.
An animated map appears. Footprints move away from a blue dot and walk beside a river. The footprints walk past a town on the other side of the river and cross a bridge to a red barn.
[Footsteps, chime]
Ranger Hamza explains, WE'RE GOING TO MEET UP AND
WALK ALONG THE RIVER TOGETHER,
TO SEE THE ANIMALS AT THE CITY FARM.
I WONDER WHAT WE'LL SEE ON THE WAY.
Ranger Hamza says, HI RAMBLERS!
The children say, HI!
Ranger Hamza asks, YOU
READY FOR A WALK?
The Ramblers cheer, YES!
Ranger Hamza says, ALRIGHT, LET'S SAY BYE.
The Ramblers and Ranger Hamza wave and say, BYE!
A woman with dark brown hair waves goodbye.

ALRIGHT. WHAT ELSE DO YOU
WANT TO SEE, BOYS?

Archie says, I WANT TO SEE EVERYTHING!
Ranger Hamza says, ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT!
Swans rest on concrete at the edge of the river.
Ranger Hamza narrates, THOSE SWANS HAVE FEATHERS.
BUT I WONDER IF WE'LL SPOT A BOAT.
[Upbeat music plays, whistling]
Ranger Hamza narrates, THERE'LL BE LOTS TO SEE ALONG THE RIVER.
A LONG TIME AGO, THIS RIVER WAS VERY BUSY.
THESE BUILDINGS WERE FACTORIES, MILLS,
AND WAREHOUSES.
AND THEY USED THE RIVER TO
MOVE THE THINGS THEY MADE.
WHAT CAN YOU GUYS SEE OVER THERE?
Ranger Hamza points to a metal hatch on a wall just above the river.
Ranger Hamza narrates, IT'S A HATCH,
LIKE A SECRET TRAP DOOR.
I WONDER WHO LIVES IN THERE?
Daniel says, I KNOW! DUCKS!
Ranger Hamza says, LITTLE DUCKS.
Sally says, NO, TROLL, I THINK.
Ranger Hamza says, A TALL TROLL?
Daniel says, YEAH, TROLL!
Ranger Hamza says, OOOH.
Daniel says, IT'S
GOING TO BE A TROLL.
BIG, STOMPY FEETS!
Ranger Hamza says, WOW, AND
HE FITS ALL INSIDE THERE?
Sally says, YEAH.
Ranger Hamza says, WOW.
CAN YOU SEE THAT IT'S A CIRCLE?
A blue line outlines the circular shape of the hatch.
[Slide whistle]
A blue button appears over the hatch.
Ranger Hamza narrates,
IT'S LIKE A BIG, SHINY BUTTON.
I WONDER HOW MANY
OTHER CIRCLES YOU'LL SPOT
ON OUR WALK TODAY.
KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN,
AND AT THE END WE'LL
SEE HOW MANY YOU NOTICED.
SO, SHALL WE PRETEND
TO BE TROLLS? ARGH!
[Growling]
Ranger Hamza and the Ramblers pretend to be trolls. They hunch forward as they walk and move their arms.
Ranger Hamza says, I'M A BIG TROLL!
I'M THE RIVER TROLL!
HEY, I'M A TROLL.
DO YOU WANT TO BE A TROLL TOO?
[Growling]
Boats are tied to a wall behind houses on the other side of the river.
Ramblers narrate, BOATS!
THE BOATS GO UP AND DOWN, ALL DAY LONG.
THEY LIKE IT ON THE RIVER.
Ranger Hamza says, LET'S KEEP ON GOING.
CAN YOU GUYS SEE THIS BOAT?
Archie points and shouts, LOOK, LOOK!
THERE'S A FISH!
Ranger Hamza says, THERE'S A FISH!
A fish shape created from DVDs lies on grass.
A Rambler says, THERE'S A
GIANT MUMMY FISH!
Ranger Hamza says, WHAT
COLOUR'S THE FISH?
The Ramblers shout, SILVER!
Ranger Hamza says, THAT'S RIGHT!
Ranger Hamza narrates, THESE OLD
FILM DVDS MAKE A BRILLIANT FISH,
WITH SPARKLY SCALES.
Ranger Hamza says, ISN'T IT AMAZING
WHAT YOU CAN MAKE ART FROM?
OLD PIECES OF JUNK THAT NOBODY WANTS.
Ranger Hamza says, CAN
ANYONE STOP THE TAIL?
SHOW ME WHERE IT IS.
The Ramblers point.
Ranger Hamza says, YEAH! I SEE IT!
Ranger Hamza says, SO, IT'S CALLED
A FIN AND IT MOVES LIKE THAT.
AND IT GOES REALLY QUICK,
DOESN'T IT? YEAH!
Ranger Hamza and the Ramblers wiggle their arms and bodies.
Ranger Hamza sings, FISH, FISH
WIGGLING IN THE WATER!
Ranger Hamza says, THAT IS BEAUTIFUL.
SHALL WE KEEP ON GOING? YEAH?
The Ramblers say, YEAH.
Ranger Hamza says, COME ON
THEN LET'S CONTINUE THE WALK.
A Rambler narrates, THE FISH IS
GLITTERY IN THE SUNSHINE.
IT'S GOT LOTS OF TINY, SHINY SCALES.
An animated fish appears over the DVD fish and dives into the river.
[Pop, splash]
Ranger Hamza narrates, THERE'S A
BUTTERFLY WITH PRETTY WINGS.
AND SOME DUCKS!
A Rambler says, HELLO DUCKS!
Ranger Hamza narrates,
LOOK, SOME BABY DUCKS TOO!
Ducklings swim beside a boat.
[Quacking]
Archie says, DUCKLINGS!
Ranger Hamza says, DUCKLINGS!
WELL, I'VE GOT A LITTLE SURPRISE GUYS
THAT CAN HELP US SEE CLOSER TO THE DUCKS.
CAN ANYONE GUESS WHAT IT IS?
The Ramblers say, BINOCULARS!
Ranger Hamza says, BINOCULARS!
SO, I'VE GOT ONE FOR YOU...
Archie says, AHH!
Ranger Hamza says,...ONE FOR YOU...
Archie says, OHH!
Ranger Hamza says,...AND ONE FOR YOU!
Archie looks delighted as he takes the binoculars from Ranger Hamza.
The Ramblers say, THANK YOU!
Ranger Hamza says, YOU'RE WELCOME!
Sally asks, DO YOU DO IT THIS WAY?
Ranger Hamza says, YEAH.
Sally and Daniel look at each other through the binoculars.
Sally says, HELLO MR!
[Giggling]
Ranger Hamza says, I CAN SEE YOU!
Daniel says, HELLO MR!
Ranger Hamza says, HELLO!
Daniel says, HELLO, WHAT

Ranger Hamza says, I CAN SEE IT TOO!
Archie says, I CAN SEE
A DUCK ON THE WALL.
Ranger Hamza says, ARCHIE
JUST SPOTTED A ON THE WALL.
WHAT COLOUR IS
THAT DUCK, ARCHIE?
Archie says, YELLOW!
Ranger Hamza says, YEAH!
A yellow rubber duck rests on top of a post.
Archie says, I THINK THIS ONE'S NOT REAL.
Ranger Hamza says, RIGHT, OK.
Animated trees and buildings appear.
[Pop, pop, slide whistle, quack]
Children sing, LET'S GO FOR A WALK
Ranger Hamza narrates, NICE WEATHER FOR DUCKS.
IT'S STARTED TO RAIN.
Archie says, LOOK, LOOK, THAT,
THEM ARE JUST SPLASHING.
IT LOOKS LIKE THEY'RE SPLASHING!
Daniel says, A BUBBLE!
Ranger Hamza narrates, YES!
THE BUBBLE SHAPES ARE RINGS,
MADE BY THE RAIN DROPLETS
HITTING THE WATER.
Circles appear on the surface of the river as the rain lands.
Sally says, THEY'RE SMALL,
BIG, SMALL, BIG.
Ranger Hamza says, EXACTLY, YEAH!
Sally says, SMALL...
Ranger Hamza says, UH-UH...
Sally says, ...BIG, SMALL, BIG!
SMALL, BIG, SMALL, BIG...
Sally claps her hands together.
[Clapping, chimes]
Blue circles outline where the raindrops hit the water. A tire hangs on the side of a blue boat.
Ranger Hamza says, YEAH!
The animated map appears. Footprints walk from the blue dot to a round hatch, a fish, and ducks.
[Footsteps]
Ranger Hamza narrates, WE'RE HALFWAY
THROUGH OUR WALK ALONG THE RIVER
AND ALREADY WE'VE SEEN:
A DOOR FOR A TROLL,
A GLITTERY FISH, AND SOME
DUCKS WITH OUR BINOCULARS.
I WONDER WHAT ELSE WE'LL SEE
BEFORE WE GET TO THE CITY FARM.
DON'T FORGET TO KEEP
AN EYE OUT FOR CIRCLES.
A streetlight has a round shade.
A Rambler says, AN AEROPLANE!
Ranger Hamza says, AEROPLANES, WOW!
A Rambler counts, 1, 2, 3, 4.
Ranger Hamza says, SHALL WE
WAVE AT THEM?
Ranger Hamza and the Rambler wave and shout, BYE!
Ranger Hamza says, SHALL WE KEEP ON GOING?
The Ramblers say, YEAH!
Ranger Hamza says, COME ON THEN.
[Upbeat music plays]
Swans swim in the river, past an iron post topped with a round ball. One swan has white feathers, the others are large goslings with fuzzy down.
A Rambler narrates, LOOK
AT THE FUZZY SWANS.
Ranger Hamza says, WHAT CAN YOU SPOT OVER THERE?
A pigeon perches in a hole in a wall.
A Rambler says, PIGEON?
Ranger Hamza says, A PIGEON!
Daniel says, AND THEN
THERE'S, ON THE WALL...
Ranger Hamza says, YEAH!
IT'S IN A LITTLE HOLE.
Archie says, AND THEN
THERE'S ANOTHER ONE.
Daniel says, I CAN SEE TWO OF THEM.
Ranger Hamza says, THAT'S RIGHT,
THERE'S ANOTHER ONE!
I THINK THIS HERE,
THIS IS LIKE A LITTLE PIGEON HOTEL.
THEY ALL COME AND
CHOOSE A LITTLE TINY HOLE
TO REST IN FOR THE NIGHT.
An animated sign reads “Hotel.” A window appears with a number eight beside it.
[Cooing]
Ranger Hamza says, CAN YOU HEAR
WHAT THE PIGEON SOUNDS LIKE?
THERE YOU GO...
Ranger Hamza and the Ramblers imitate pigeons.
[Imitation cooing]
Sally points and says, OH, FLOWERS!
Ranger Hamza says, YEAH, FLOWERS!
THESE ARE LOVELY AND PURPLE.
THEY'VE GOT BEAUTIFUL PETALS.
ALL THAT FLOWERS
NEED TO GROW IS SUNLIGHT,
WATER, AND A PLACE TO LIVE.
LOOK AT ALL THESE DIFFERENT TYPES.
Archie says, THERE'S LIKE AN ANT...
Ranger Hamza says, THAT'S RIGHT, YEAH,
THERE'S JUST A LITTLE TINY ANT.
CAN YOU SEE IT?
THESE ARE PART OF FLYING ANTS.
AND YOU'LL SEE THEM AT
THIS TIME OF THE YEAR
ALL AROUND THE CITY
AND THE COUNTRYSIDE.
A boy says, ONLY THE
BIG ONES CAN FLY.
Ranger Hamza says, THAT'S RIGHT!
AND WHAT DO THEY NORMALLY HAVE?
WHAT DO THEY USE TO FLY?
Archie says, WINGS!
Ranger Hamza says, THAT'S IT.
SO HOW DO THEY FLY?
Sally says, LIKE THIS!
Sally and Ranger Hamza flap their hands.
Ranger Hamza says, LIKE THIS.
Flying ants crawl on the wall. Birds take off from the top of a building.
[Flapping wings]
Ramblers narrate, FLY AWAY, ANTS!
FLY AWAY, BIRDS!
BYE, BYE.
HELLO BUILDING.
Animated eyes appear on the side of a building and blink.
[Blink, blink]
Ranger Hamza narrates, HELLO!
Ranger Hamza narrates, WE'RE
COUNTING HOW MANY FLOORS
IN THIS TALL BUILDING.
The Ramblers count, TWO, THREE, FOUR...FIVE.
Ranger Hamza says, YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT.
FIVE STOREYS.
Chimes sound and numbers appear on each level as a Rambler counts.
[Chimes]
A Rambler says, ONE,
TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE!
Ranger Hamza narrates,
THE WATER LEVEL IN SOME RIVERS
GOES UP AND DOWN WITH THE TIDE.
AND SOME DRY OUT COMPLETELY.
White daisies grow beside the river. An old boat lies tied to a wall on dry land.
Ranger Hamza says, WE CAN FIND OUT BY LISTENING
TO WHETHER THERE'S WATER
IN THE RIVER OR NOT.
SO, I'VE GOT A LITTLE PLAN.
LET'S ALL FIND A PEBBLE EACH.
Sally says, PEBBLES!
Ranger Hamza says, ALRIGHT.
JUST PICK UP ONE.
A child says, I'VE GOT A PEBBLE.
Ranger Hamza says, AND WE'RE GONNA PUT OUR HANDS
THROUGH LIKE THIS.
A Rambler says, THERE IT IS.
Ranger Hamza says, AND WE'RE
NOT GONNA THROW IT
WE'RE JUST GONNA LET GO OF IT, OK
AND SEE IF WE CAN HEAR
A PLOP OR A THUD. YEAH?
Archie says, YEAH.
Ranger Hamza says,] SO,
ON YOUR MARKS, GET SET...
They drop their pebbles.
[Splashing]
Archie shouts, YES!
Ranger Hamza says, YES!
Ranger Hamza says,] SO,
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
THAT THIS SIDE IS FULL
OF WHAT?
Archie answers, WATER.
LIKE THIS SIDE’S GOT WATER,
AND THAT SIDE HAS,
THAT SIDE HAS NOT GOT WATER.
Ranger Hamza says, AND IS IT
DEEP WATER OR SHALLOW WATER?
Archie says, SHALLOW WATER.
Ranger Hamza says, YEAH.
SHALLOW CAUSE WE
CAN SEE STRAIGHT TO THE BOTTOM
AND WE CAN SEE ALL
THE TYPES OF ROCKS.
SO, THIS RIVER HERE
IS A TIDAL RIVER,
SO TWICE A DAY THE WATER
GOES UP AND DOWN AGAIN.
EXACTLY, YEAH.
The Ramblers and Ranger Hamza say, SPLASH!
A duck paddles by the wall beside the river.
[Quacking]
A spider spins a web by the river.
A Rambler says, THE SPIDER LIKE LIVING
BESIDE THE RIVER.
Ranger Hamza says, IT'S BEEN A WONDERFUL DAY
SHALL WE TAKE A WEE REST?
The Ramblers say, YEAH!
Ranger Hamza says, COME ON THEN
LET'S HAVE A SEAT ON THIS BENCH
Sally says, I'M GONNA LIE DOWN ON IT.
Ranger Hamza says, OH, TAKE
THE WEIGHT OFF YOUR FEET.
HOW ABOUT WE USE OUR LISTENING EARS.
Sally says, YEAH?
Ranger Hamza says, AND THEN CLOSE OUR EYES OK.
AND WE'LL CLOSE OUR EYES
AND SEE WHAT WE CAN HEAR.
Sally says, I CAN HEAR A CAR.
Ranger Hamza says, CARS, YES.
[Car engines]
Daniel says, I CAN HEAR.
I CAN HEAR SOMEONE STAMPING
THEIR FEET.
Ranger Hamza says, OOOH RIGHT WHAT ELSE?
Sally says, SHEEP!
Sally points to sheep running down the pavement beside the river.
[Bleating, laughing]
Ranger Hamza says, OH WOW!
[Laughing]
THAT'S WONDERFUL.
The Ramblers say, SHEEEEP!
[Ranger Hamza says, SHEEP ON THE
LOOSE IN THE MIDDLE OF A CITY, EH?
Ramblers say, THE SHEEP ARE
ALL FOLLOWING EACH OTHER.
WHERE ARE YOU GOING?
I WANT TO GO, TOO.
Ranger Hamza says, TRYING TO FIND THE SHEEP.
The Ramblers and Ranger Hamza skep across a bridge.
[Laughing]
Ranger Hamza says, THE SHEEP IN THE
MIDDLE OF THE CITY, EH?
[Laughing]
Archie says, OVER HERE.
Ranger Hamza says, WHERE DID THEY GO?
Archie says, HERE!
Archie runs through a gateway.
Ranger Hamza says, WOW.
[Whistling, upbeat music plays]
Ranger Hamza narrates, THE SHEEP
HAVE COME HOME TO THE CITY FARM.
Ranger Hamza says, SO, WE'VE
MADE IT TO THE CITY FARM.
BEFORE WE GO AND SEE THE ANIMALS,
CAN ANYONE REMEMBER
WHAT WE DID TODAY?
Sally exclaims, YES!
The animated map appears. Footprints move away from the blue dot. They pass the hatch, a fish, ducks, a pigeon and a swan. The footprints stop by a red barn with sheep.
[Creak, quack, plop, splash, bleating]
[Upbeat music plays]
Ranger Hamza narrates, WE STARTED
OUR WALK AT THE TROLL DOOR.
Flashback: Ranger Hamza says, I'M THE RIVER TROLL.

PIGEONS, PLANTS, AND ANTS.
WE PLAYED A FUN GAME TO SEE IF
THERE WAS WATER IN THE RIVER.
Flashback: The Ramblers and Ranger Hamza yell, SPLASH!
Ranger Hamza narrates,
AND WE'VE FOLLOWED THE SHEEP TO
END OUR WALK AT THE CITY FARM.
ALONG THE WAY WE WERE
LOOKING FOR CIRCLE SHAPES.
HOW MANY OF THESE DID YOU FIND?
A blue line traces the shape of the hatch.
[Slide whistle]
Ranger Hamza narrates, THE FIRST ONE
WAS THE TROLL DOOR.
IT WAS LIKE A SHINY BUTTON.
A blue button appears over the hatch.
[Slide whistle]
A tire hangs on the side of a blue boat.
Ranger Hamza says, DID YOU SPOT ANY OF THESE ONES?
THIS OLD TIRE IS THE SAME
SHAPE AS THE SHINY BUTTON TOO.
Animated trees appear.
[Pop, pop]
Ranger Hamza says, WELL, I HOPE YOU ENJOYED
OUR WALK TODAY, WE CERTAINLY DID.

Sally says, THEY'RE SMALL,
BIG, SMALL, BIG.
Ranger Hamza says, EXACTLY, YEAH!
Sally says, SMALL...
Ranger Hamza says, UH-UH...
Sally says, ...BIG, SMALL, BIG!
SMALL, BIG, SMALL, BIG...
Sally claps her hands together.
[Clapping, chimes]
Blue circles outline where the raindrops hit the water. A tire hangs on the side of a blue boat.
Ranger Hamza says, YEAH!
The animated map appears. Footprints walk from the blue dot to a round hatch, a fish, and ducks.
[Footsteps]
Ranger Hamza narrates, WE'RE HALFWAY
THROUGH OUR WALK ALONG THE RIVER
AND ALREADY WE'VE SEEN:
A DOOR FOR A TROLL,
A GLITTERY FISH, AND SOME
DUCKS WITH OUR BINOCULARS.
I WONDER WHAT ELSE WE'LL SEE
BEFORE WE GET TO THE CITY FARM.
DON'T FORGET TO KEEP
AN EYE OUT FOR CIRCLES.
A streetlight has a round shade.
A Rambler says, AN AEROPLANE!
Ranger Hamza says, AEROPLANES, WOW!
A Rambler counts, 1, 2, 3, 4.
Ranger Hamza says, SHALL WE
WAVE AT THEM?
Ranger Hamza and the Rambler wave and shout, BYE!
Ranger Hamza says, SHALL WE KEEP ON GOING?
The Ramblers say, YEAH!
Ranger Hamza says, COME ON THEN.
[Upbeat music plays]
Swans swim in the river, past an iron post topped with a round ball. One swan has white feathers, the others are large goslings with fuzzy down.
A Rambler narrates, LOOK
AT THE FUZZY SWANS.
Ranger Hamza says, WHAT CAN YOU SPOT OVER THERE?
A pigeon perches in a hole in a wall.
A Rambler says, PIGEON?
Ranger Hamza says, A PIGEON!
Daniel says, AND THEN
THERE'S, ON THE WALL...
Ranger Hamza says, YEAH!
IT'S IN A LITTLE HOLE.
Archie says, AND THEN
THERE'S ANOTHER ONE.
Daniel says, I CAN SEE TWO OF THEM.
Ranger Hamza says, THAT'S RIGHT,
THERE'S ANOTHER ONE!
I THINK THIS HERE,
THIS IS LIKE A LITTLE PIGEON HOTEL.
THEY ALL COME AND
CHOOSE A LITTLE TINY HOLE
TO REST IN FOR THE NIGHT.
An animated sign reads “Hotel.” A window appears with a number eight beside it.
[Cooing]
Ranger Hamza says, CAN YOU HEAR
WHAT THE PIGEON SOUNDS LIKE?
THERE YOU GO...
Ranger Hamza and the Ramblers imitate pigeons.
[Imitation cooing]
Sally points and says, OH, FLOWERS!
Ranger Hamza says, YEAH, FLOWERS!
THESE ARE LOVELY AND PURPLE.
THEY'VE GOT BEAUTIFUL PETALS.
ALL THAT FLOWERS
NEED TO GROW IS SUNLIGHT,
WATER, AND A PLACE TO LIVE.
LOOK AT ALL THESE DIFFERENT TYPES.
Archie says, THERE'S LIKE AN ANT...
Ranger Hamza says, THAT'S RIGHT, YEAH,
THERE'S JUST A LITTLE TINY ANT.
CAN YOU SEE IT?
THESE ARE PART OF FLYING ANTS.
AND YOU'LL SEE THEM AT
THIS TIME OF THE YEAR
ALL AROUND THE CITY
AND THE COUNTRYSIDE.
A boy says, ONLY THE
BIG ONES CAN FLY.
Ranger Hamza says, THAT'S RIGHT!
AND WHAT DO THEY NORMALLY HAVE?
WHAT DO THEY USE TO FLY?
Archie says, WINGS!
Ranger Hamza says, THAT'S IT.
SO HOW DO THEY FLY?
Sally says, LIKE THIS!
Sally and Ranger Hamza flap their hands.
Ranger Hamza says, LIKE THIS.
Flying ants crawl on the wall. Birds take off from the top of a building.
[Flapping wings]
Ramblers narrate, FLY AWAY, ANTS!
FLY AWAY, BIRDS!
BYE, BYE.
HELLO BUILDING.
Animated eyes appear on the side of a building and blink.
[Blink, blink]
Ranger Hamza narrates, HELLO!
Ranger Hamza narrates, WE'RE
COUNTING HOW MANY FLOORS
IN THIS TALL BUILDING.
The Ramblers count, TWO, THREE, FOUR...FIVE.
Ranger Hamza says, YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT.
FIVE STOREYS.
Chimes sound and numbers appear on each level as a Rambler counts.
[Chimes]
A Rambler says, ONE,
TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE!
Ranger Hamza narrates,
THE WATER LEVEL IN SOME RIVERS
GOES UP AND DOWN WITH THE TIDE.
AND SOME DRY OUT COMPLETELY.
White daisies grow beside the river. An old boat lies tied to a wall on dry land.
Ranger Hamza says, WE CAN FIND OUT BY LISTENING
TO WHETHER THERE'S WATER
IN THE RIVER OR NOT.
SO, I'VE GOT A LITTLE PLAN.
LET'S ALL FIND A PEBBLE EACH.
Sally says, PEBBLES!
Ranger Hamza says, ALRIGHT.
JUST PICK UP ONE.
A child says, I'VE GOT A PEBBLE.
Ranger Hamza says, AND WE'RE GONNA PUT OUR HANDS
THROUGH LIKE THIS.
A Rambler says, THERE IT IS.
Ranger Hamza says, AND WE'RE
NOT GONNA THROW IT
WE'RE JUST GONNA LET GO OF IT, OK
AND SEE IF WE CAN HEAR
A PLOP OR A THUD. YEAH?
Archie says, YEAH.
Ranger Hamza says,] SO,
ON YOUR MARKS, GET SET...
They drop their pebbles.
[Splashing]
Archie shouts, YES!
Ranger Hamza says, YES!
Ranger Hamza says,] SO,
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
THAT THIS SIDE IS FULL
OF WHAT?
Archie answers, WATER.
LIKE THIS SIDE’S GOT WATER,
AND THAT SIDE HAS,
THAT SIDE HAS NOT GOT WATER.
Ranger Hamza says, AND IS IT
DEEP WATER OR SHALLOW WATER?
Archie says, SHALLOW WATER.
Ranger Hamza says, YEAH.
SHALLOW CAUSE WE
CAN SEE STRAIGHT TO THE BOTTOM
AND WE CAN SEE ALL
THE TYPES OF ROCKS.
SO, THIS RIVER HERE
IS A TIDAL RIVER,
SO TWICE A DAY THE WATER
GOES UP AND DOWN AGAIN.
EXACTLY, YEAH.
The Ramblers and Ranger Hamza say, SPLASH!
A duck paddles by the wall beside the river.
[Quacking]
A spider spins a web by the river.
A Rambler says, THE SPIDER LIKE LIVING
BESIDE THE RIVER.
Ranger Hamza says, IT'S BEEN A WONDERFUL DAY
SHALL WE TAKE A WEE REST?
The Ramblers say, YEAH!
Ranger Hamza says, COME ON THEN
LET'S HAVE A SEAT ON THIS BENCH
Sally says, I'M GONNA LIE DOWN ON IT.
Ranger Hamza says, OH, TAKE
THE WEIGHT OFF YOUR FEET.
HOW ABOUT WE USE OUR LISTENING EARS.
Sally says, YEAH?
Ranger Hamza says, AND THEN CLOSE OUR EYES OK.
AND WE'LL CLOSE OUR EYES
AND SEE WHAT WE CAN HEAR.
Sally says, I CAN HEAR A CAR.
Ranger Hamza says, CARS, YES.
[Car engines]
Daniel says, I CAN HEAR.
I CAN HEAR SOMEONE STAMPING
THEIR FEET.
Ranger Hamza says, OOOH RIGHT WHAT ELSE?
Sally says, SHEEP!
Sally points to sheep running down the pavement beside the river.
[Bleating, laughing]
Ranger Hamza says, OH WOW!
[Laughing]
THAT'S WONDERFUL.
The Ramblers say, SHEEEEP!
[Ranger Hamza says, SHEEP ON THE
LOOSE IN THE MIDDLE OF A CITY, EH?
Ramblers say, THE SHEEP ARE
ALL FOLLOWING EACH OTHER.
WHERE ARE YOU GOING?
I WANT TO GO, TOO.
Ranger Hamza says, TRYING TO FIND THE SHEEP.
The Ramblers and Ranger Hamza skep across a bridge.
[Laughing]
Ranger Hamza says, THE SHEEP IN THE
MIDDLE OF THE CITY, EH?
[Laughing]
Archie says, OVER HERE.
Ranger Hamza says, WHERE DID THEY GO?
Archie says, HERE!
Archie runs through a gateway.
Ranger Hamza says, WOW.
[Whistling, upbeat music plays]
Ranger Hamza narrates, THE SHEEP
HAVE COME HOME TO THE CITY FARM.
Ranger Hamza says, SO, WE'VE
MADE IT TO THE CITY FARM.
BEFORE WE GO AND SEE THE ANIMALS,
CAN ANYONE REMEMBER
WHAT WE DID TODAY?
Sally exclaims, YES!
The animated map appears. Footprints move away from the blue dot. They pass the hatch, a fish, ducks, a pigeon and a swan. The footprints stop by a red barn with sheep.
[Creak, quack, plop, splash, bleating]
[Upbeat music plays]
Ranger Hamza narrates, WE STARTED
OUR WALK AT THE TROLL DOOR.
Flashback: Ranger Hamza says, I'M THE RIVER TROLL.
Ranger Hamza narrates, THEN
WE SPOTTED A SILVERY FISH.
Flashback: Archie says, THAT'S A FISH.
THERE'S A GIANT MUMMY FISH.
Ranger Hamza narrates, OUR BINOCULARS
HELPED US SEE THE DUCKS.
Flashback: A Rambler yells, DUCKLINGS!
Ranger Hamza narrates, WE SAW LOTS
MORE ANIMALS AND PLANTS
WHO LIVE ON THE RIVERBANK.
THERE WAS SWANS,
PIGEONS, PLANTS, AND ANTS.
WE PLAYED A FUN GAME TO SEE IF
THERE WAS WATER IN THE RIVER.
Flashback: The Ramblers and Ranger Hamza yell, SPLASH!
Ranger Hamza narrates,
AND WE'VE FOLLOWED THE SHEEP TO
END OUR WALK AT THE CITY FARM.
ALONG THE WAY WE WERE
LOOKING FOR CIRCLE SHAPES.
HOW MANY OF THESE DID YOU FIND?
A blue line traces the shape of the hatch.
[Slide whistle]
Ranger Hamza narrates, THE FIRST ONE
WAS THE TROLL DOOR.
IT WAS LIKE A SHINY BUTTON.
A blue button appears over the hatch.
[Slide whistle]
A tire hangs on the side of a blue boat.
Ranger Hamza says, DID YOU SPOT ANY OF THESE ONES?
THIS OLD TIRE IS THE SAME
SHAPE AS THE SHINY BUTTON TOO.
Animated trees appear.
[Pop, pop]
Ranger Hamza says, WELL, I HOPE YOU ENJOYED
OUR WALK TODAY, WE CERTAINLY DID.
NEXT TIME YOU GO FOR A WALK
WHY DON'T YOU KEEP
YOUR EYES AND EARS OPEN,
AND YOU CAN HAVE AN ADVENTURE TOO.
The Ramblers and Ranger Hamza wave and say, BYE!
Ranger Hamza says, COME ON THEN.
LET'S GO AND SEE THE ANIMALS.
Ranger Hamza and the Ramblers sit with bunnies on their laps.
[Laughing, chatting]
