Forest animals, awakened by the birds' warning that there is a stranger in the woods, set out to discover if there is danger and find, instead, a wonderful surprise.

A colorful springtime tale of trust, patience, and waiting for one's time. Woodland creatures are concerned for a newborn fawn they believe is lost.

The visuals are of live, wild animals. The filmmakers had to record hours of wildlife to get appropriate actions to match the text. The 'Behind the Scenes' extra describes how they achieved this. The voice-overs for the animals used distinctive voices, including Latinx raccoons. For a young audience, who should appreciate this story of a newborn fawn, who isn't really lost. Amusing for adults, tho you won't likely want to see it more than once.
