Hiya, come on in. It's time for The Green Balloon Club.

0:01:020:01:06

HELLO!

0:01:060:01:08

Glad you could join us.

0:01:080:01:10

-Of course. Here you go.

Lily-Rose.

SQUEAKING

0:01:160:01:18

I'm here.

0:01:180:01:20

-Lily-Rose is wiggling today.

-No, I'm wagging.

0:01:200:01:24

-Wagging?

-I thought I'd say hello like Skipper today.

0:01:240:01:28

She always wags her tail to say hello.

0:01:280:01:31

I get it!

0:01:310:01:33

We're doing the doggy hello today.

0:01:330:01:36

Now my go.

0:01:370:01:39

I think I'll say hello in Skipper language today.

0:01:390:01:42

SQUEAKING

0:01:420:01:44

-LAUGHTER

-I'm here!

0:01:440:01:46

Cat.

0:01:490:01:51

SQUEAKING I'm here.

0:01:510:01:54

SQUEAKING

0:02:210:02:23

I'M HERE!

0:02:230:02:25

Everyone's present and correct.

0:02:250:02:27

Let's do The Green Balloon Club chant. YEAH!

0:02:270:02:31

DRUMBEAT

0:02:310:02:34

ALL: We love animals, plants and birds.

0:02:370:02:40

We love snails and slugs.

0:02:400:02:42

Large and small, we love them all and we never, ever step on bugs

0:02:420:02:47

Cos we are the Green Balloon Club!

0:02:470:02:50

Some of our members have been asking about the actions for the chant.

0:02:500:02:55

I thought I'd explain them so you can join in.

0:02:550:02:58

First of all we make rabbit ears,

0:02:580:03:01

for we love animals,

0:03:010:03:02

plants, and then we make bird wings for birds. Come on!

0:03:020:03:07

Join in with me.

0:03:070:03:08

We love animals, plants and birds.

0:03:080:03:11

Then we make a snail,

0:03:110:03:13

for we love snails and slugs.

0:03:130:03:16

So there's the body and there's the shell. So...

0:03:160:03:20

We love animals, plants and birds.

0:03:200:03:24

We love snails and slugs.

0:03:240:03:27

Large and small - so make yourself as tall as you can

0:03:270:03:31

and then as small as you can.

0:03:310:03:34

We love them all!

0:03:340:03:35

And we never, ever step on bugs

0:03:350:03:38

Cos we are the Green Balloon Club.

0:03:380:03:42

And that's the secret sign.

0:03:420:03:44

(Remember the secret sign!)

0:03:440:03:48

-Shall we do it all together?

-Yeah!

0:03:500:03:53

DRUMBEAT

0:03:530:03:57

We love animals, plants and birds.

0:03:570:04:00

We love snails and slugs.

0:04:000:04:03

Large and small, we love them all and we never, ever step on bugs

0:04:030:04:07

Cos we are the Green Balloon Club!

0:04:070:04:11

Well done. I'll see if we can get that up onto our website

0:04:110:04:15

so you can check it whenever you want.

0:04:150:04:18

Sky! Look! I've got a green star.

0:04:180:04:21

Oh, great! Did you find this week's Spot?

0:04:210:04:24

-Yes, it was an apple, and that's the apple tree.

-Fantastic!

0:04:240:04:28

-Did you draw that?

-Yes.

0:04:280:04:30

I love the lovely red apples you've got on there.

0:04:300:04:34

-You know the little pips inside?

-Yes.

-Can they grow into a big tree?

-Yes!

0:04:340:04:39

-That's good, because I've got some.

-Well, why not give it a go?

-Yeah!

0:04:390:04:45

CLOCK WHIRRS Special report! Special report!

0:04:450:04:48

-There's Jelly with her special report.

-Has she been finding apples?

0:04:480:04:53

Well, let's find out.

0:04:530:04:54

Special Reporter Jelly reporting to Green Balloon Club.

0:05:010:05:05

Oh, and these are my friends. Hello, Reuben, hello, Imogen,

0:05:050:05:10

-hello, Mummy Kim.

-Hello, Jelly.

-Hello, Jelly!

-Hello!

0:05:100:05:13

Where are you off to today?

0:05:130:05:15

-The apple orchard.

-The app...? What's an apple orchard?

0:05:150:05:20

-Come on, we'll show you!

-Oh!

0:05:200:05:22

Oh, wow! Look at all the apple trees!

0:05:230:05:26

Loads of apple trees make an apple orchard.

0:05:260:05:29

Oh, I see!

0:05:290:05:31

We've got different kinds here, Jelly. Some are cooking apples,

0:05:310:05:35

to make things like apple crumble or apple pie,

0:05:350:05:39

and some are eating apples

0:05:390:05:41

to eat or to make into apple juice.

0:05:410:05:44

Apple juice? Apple juice? I love apple juice!

0:05:440:05:48

Can we make some? Can we? Oh, yes, I would love that!

0:05:480:05:52

-Yes, but first we have to pick some apples.

-Oh, yes! Pick some apples!

0:05:520:05:57

-I can't reach. Can you lift me up?

-Yes.

0:05:570:06:01

Oh! I can't do it! It won't come off.

0:06:030:06:07

Probably not ripe for picking, then.

0:06:070:06:11

-Right. Well, how do you know when it's ready?

-Gently twist the apple.

0:06:110:06:15

If it comes away easily, you know it's ready to eat and will be juicy.

0:06:150:06:20

Oh! I'll have a go, then.

0:06:200:06:22

Yes! It's all about picking apples.

0:06:270:06:30

Aha!

0:06:330:06:36

Sometimes you have to stand on tippy-toes.

0:06:390:06:42

Sometimes you can stand on a bit of wood.

0:06:420:06:44

How many more?

0:06:470:06:49

I think we've got enough now.

0:06:490:06:51

-Oh! So many apples...

-Come on, Jelly, we're going this way.

0:07:000:07:05

Yes! Wait for me, wait for me...!

0:07:050:07:07

-Time to wash the apples now, Jelly.

-Ah, yes, OK.

0:07:110:07:15

Now I've got to chop them up.

0:07:150:07:18

OK.

0:07:180:07:20

-Get them all ready for the next bit.

-Chop, chop, chop!

0:07:200:07:24

JELLY GIGGLES

0:07:240:07:27

What's this big machine for, then?

0:07:300:07:33

This is for crushing the apples.

0:07:330:07:36

Crushing the apples? How does it work?

0:07:360:07:39

-You turn this, and then the crushers in there crush the apples.

-Oh, yes!

0:07:390:07:44

They're coming out all lumpy and bumpy. I'm not thirsty any more.

0:07:440:07:48

It's not ready yet, Jelly!

0:07:480:07:50

Oh, right!

0:07:500:07:52

So what do we do next?

0:07:520:07:54

We squeeze, and then the juice comes out of these two taps and down there.

0:07:540:08:00

Oh, look! It's coming, it's coming!

0:08:000:08:04

-The apple juice...

-Try it, Jelly!

-I'll get my cup.

0:08:040:08:07

Oh, it's lovely, isn't it?

0:08:130:08:16

Thank you very much for letting me come and press apples with you. Bye!

0:08:160:08:21

-Bye!

-Bye!

0:08:210:08:24

This is Special Reporter Jelly

0:08:250:08:28

in an apple orchard,

0:08:280:08:30

reporting for Green Balloon Club.

0:08:300:08:32

Back to you in the Green Balloon. Up and away!

0:08:320:08:36

Wow! Jelly found lots of apples.

0:08:450:08:48

Did she get lots of green stars?

0:08:480:08:51

I don't think so.

0:08:510:08:54

-What are you looking for?

-Something to plant my apple pips in.

0:08:540:08:59

Hmm.

0:08:590:09:00

-How about this?

-Yes, that'd be perfect!

0:09:000:09:04

It's got one, two, three,

0:09:040:09:08

four, five, six. Just right to plant my apple pips in.

0:09:080:09:13

And I've got something for you to put them in when you're watering it.

0:09:130:09:18

Thanks, Ant, that's great.

0:09:180:09:20

Now all we need is some compost.

0:09:210:09:24

Hello!

0:09:240:09:26

-I spy some Green Balloon Club members!

-Who is it?

0:09:260:09:30

-It's Melina and Naureen.

-BOTH: Hello!

0:09:300:09:33

Hello!

0:09:340:09:37

Today we're on a special mission to find deer in this park.

0:09:370:09:41

There are two types of deer - red deer and fallow deer.

0:09:410:09:45

Let's go and see what we can find.

0:09:450:09:48

The deer could be anywhere in the park.

0:09:480:09:52

We must be very quiet and stay close to the adults.

0:09:520:09:56

Look, I can see red deer. Can you see them too?

0:09:560:10:00

That one just stood up.

0:10:000:10:02

So we're really, really excited to see them,

0:10:020:10:07

but it's important not to scare them away.

0:10:070:10:11

They are wild animals and can be very dangerous

0:10:110:10:14

so we mustn't get too close or try and feed them.

0:10:140:10:17

The ones with the antlers are called stags. They are males.

0:10:170:10:22

I've seen the stag with his antlers.

0:10:220:10:24

-The antlers are made of bone.

-Look at how big and spiky they are.

0:10:240:10:29

They grow in spring and fall off in the winter.

0:10:290:10:32

The red deer can live for up to 18 years.

0:10:320:10:37

Look at those males fighting!

0:10:390:10:42

They look really strong.

0:10:420:10:44

The female red deer are called hinds.

0:10:460:10:50

She's much smaller than the male, isn't she?

0:10:500:10:53

They like to eat grass and shrubs.

0:10:530:10:57

There are some fallow deer.

0:10:570:10:59

-Look at how pretty they look.

-I love the red fur and white marks.

0:10:590:11:04

Well, we just spotted that some of the fallow deer

0:11:040:11:08

have been eating fresh grass,

0:11:080:11:11

and they look like they're happy eating,

0:11:110:11:14

cos they think it's very fresh and juicy.

0:11:140:11:17

There's the male fallow deer.

0:11:180:11:21

He has antlers too, but not as big as the red deer.

0:11:210:11:25

We're so lucky

0:11:280:11:31

-to see the deer.

-Time for us to go now.

0:11:310:11:34

BOTH: Bye!

0:11:340:11:35

They're so lucky to see deer. I wish I could see one.

0:11:420:11:46

-They're so beautiful.

-I find it amazing

0:11:460:11:49

that animals as large as deer live wild in our country.

0:11:490:11:53

-You'd think it's easy to spot them, but I never have.

-Well, they're shy.

0:11:530:11:58

I suppose they'd rather live in the country than in the city, like I do.

0:11:580:12:03

-They do live in cities too.

-Really? Amazing!

0:12:030:12:07

When you're out and about in a city, don't forget to look for wildlife.

0:12:170:12:22

Here in one of Scotland's busiest cities

0:12:220:12:27

is one of the last creatures you would expect to find.

0:12:270:12:31

Hello! I'm a roe deer.

0:12:310:12:34

And this is my sister.

0:12:340:12:37

She's a female doe and I'm a male buck.

0:12:370:12:41

You can tell I'm a boy, since only male roe deer have antlers.

0:12:410:12:46

Antlers are the horns that look like branches

0:12:460:12:49

poking out from the top of my head.

0:12:490:12:52

We live here, slap bang in the city centre,

0:12:540:12:59

surrounded by houses, roads

0:12:590:13:01

and factories. It might seem

0:13:010:13:04

a strange place for a forest animal to live, but it's perfect for us.

0:13:040:13:08

You see, roe deer are different to other deer,

0:13:080:13:13

since we like to live alone or in a pair instead of a large group.

0:13:130:13:18

We like to live away from other roe deer,

0:13:180:13:21

cos you can't have too many roe deer living in the same place.

0:13:210:13:26

There's less space and less food to share,

0:13:260:13:29

so this is where we have decided to set up home, away from other deer.

0:13:290:13:34

We can't complain, since this city park provides shelter

0:13:340:13:38

and a great variety of plants to nibble on.

0:13:380:13:42

We share our city home with lots of other animals, too.

0:13:450:13:49

See if you recognise any of our neighbours.

0:13:490:13:53

There's a cheeky squirrel,

0:13:540:13:57

a little wren...

0:13:570:13:59

..a busy magpie,

0:14:000:14:02

and look out! Here comes a fox!

0:14:020:14:06

So you see,

0:14:060:14:08

there really are some wonderful creatures living in the city too.

0:14:080:14:13

And even roe deer like my sister and I

0:14:130:14:16

are better suited to city life than you may expect.

0:14:160:14:20

It just shows you don't have to go far - you can see amazing animals

0:14:200:14:25

living right on your doorstep.

0:14:250:14:28

See you, then!

0:14:280:14:30

# I used to think maybe you loved me

0:14:360:14:41

# Now, baby, I'm sure

0:14:410:14:42

# And I just can't wait till the day

0:14:460:14:48

# When you knock on my door

0:14:480:14:51

# Now every time I go for the mailbox

0:14:540:14:58

# Gotta hold myself down

0:14:580:15:00

# Cos I just can't wait till you write me you're coming around

0:15:030:15:09

# Now I'm walking on sunshine Who-oa

0:15:110:15:15

# I'm walking on sunshine Who-oa

0:15:150:15:20

# I'm walking on sunshine Who-oa

0:15:200:15:24

# And don't it feel good? Hey! All right now!

0:15:240:15:27

# Don't it feel good?

0:15:270:15:29

# I say it, say it, say it again now Don't it feel good?

0:15:290:15:35

# Hey, yeah!

0:15:350:15:37

# Don't it feel good?

0:15:370:15:40

# Don't it, don't it, don't it Don't it feel good...? #

0:15:400:15:44

I'm going to keep my eyes open for a deer. I'd love to see one!

0:15:440:15:49

Jay, have you noticed there's a deer on our website?

0:15:490:15:53

-Skipper was just showing me.

-Oh, yes! It's a secret picture password.

0:15:530:15:58

Which shall we choose, the apple or the deer?

0:15:580:16:01

-It's got to be the deer.

-I agree. Shall we click on it?

0:16:010:16:04

Yes! I knew it!

0:16:040:16:08

So if you're trying to get on our website,

0:16:080:16:11

the picture password is the deer.

0:16:110:16:13

-What are you two up to?

-Looking for compost for Lily-Rose's planting.

0:16:160:16:21

I'm sure the worms would have made some by now.

0:16:210:16:25

Well, the worms are working very hard.

0:16:250:16:28

It takes a lot of time to eat all this. You'll have to wait a while.

0:16:280:16:33

Oh, but I want to plant my apple pips now.

0:16:330:16:38

Well, that's why Skipper and I have found you something.

0:16:380:16:42

Skipper! Skipper!

0:16:420:16:44

Skipper! Good girl!

0:16:440:16:47

-Compost!

-Compost!

0:16:470:16:49

Thanks!

0:16:490:16:50

Good luck, guys.

0:16:510:16:54

Skipper!

0:16:540:16:56

-Now what are we going to do, Lily-Rose?

-Plant my apple pips

0:16:560:17:00

in this pot.

0:17:000:17:01

-What kind of apples do you think they'll be?

-I think red ones.

0:17:010:17:06

My favourite apples are red crunchy ones. What do your seeds need?

0:17:060:17:12

Well, it needs soil,

0:17:120:17:15

rain and sunlight.

0:17:150:17:17

In goes the last bit...

0:17:170:17:20

-There.

-There we go.

0:17:200:17:23

Now...I'll poke a hole through

0:17:230:17:26

and you put the seed in.

0:17:260:17:28

One...

0:17:280:17:31

-Two...

-..two...

Three...

0:17:380:17:42

four...

0:17:420:17:44

..five...

0:17:460:17:47

..and the last one,

0:17:510:17:52

six.

0:17:520:17:54

Now they're done.

0:17:580:18:00

-No, now we need water.

-Oh, yes.

0:18:000:18:04

A tiny drop.

0:18:040:18:07

Stop!

0:18:070:18:08

Stop!

0:18:120:18:14

Thanks for helping me, Ant.

0:18:170:18:18

-I'll let you have an apple when they grow.

-Maybe we could grow oranges.

0:18:180:18:23

With apple pips? No!

0:18:230:18:26

No, I didn't mean that!

0:18:260:18:28

I meant every orange we eat, we can save the seeds and grow a tree.

0:18:280:18:33

How about a lemon? Lemons have pips in.

0:18:330:18:36

-Or a plum.

-Plums? They don't have pips in, they have stones!

0:18:360:18:41

-I'm pretty sure a plum stone is a kind of seed.

-Shall we try that too?

0:18:410:18:46

Yes, we could grow a whole orchard.

0:18:460:18:49

Then we could make a fruit salad for everyone. That would be great.

0:18:490:18:53

I think I can see some Green Balloon Club members down there.

0:18:530:18:58

Hello!

0:18:580:18:59

Yes!

0:18:590:19:01

It must be time for the Spot of the Week.

0:19:010:19:04

Hello!

0:19:060:19:08

This week's Spot is fungi.

0:19:080:19:11

-Please help me spot some.

-Fungi is the name of a group of living things

0:19:150:19:20

like mushrooms and toadstools.

0:19:200:19:22

Fungi like damp areas,

0:19:220:19:26

and you can find them in parks, gardens and woods.

0:19:260:19:30

They really like living at the roots of trees.

0:19:300:19:34

They come in all shapes and sizes.

0:19:340:19:37

Look at this one - it's a shaggy parasol.

0:19:370:19:42

These are fairy ring mushrooms.

0:19:420:19:44

And you can see where the grass grows thicker,

0:19:440:19:49

where the other fairy ring mushrooms have been.

0:19:490:19:52

Look at that!

0:19:530:19:55

It's inside the tree.

0:19:550:19:56

Do not ever pick or touch fungi.

0:19:560:20:00

Some are VERY poisonous

0:20:000:20:02

and could make you very sick.

0:20:020:20:06

You can eat some types of mushroom, but buy them from a shop.

0:20:060:20:11

Why don't YOU spot some?

0:20:110:20:13

So remember the clues...

0:20:130:20:15

They grow in damp areas. Find them in your garden, parks or woods.

0:20:150:20:21

They come in all shapes and sizes.

0:20:210:20:24

Remember - don't pick them or touch them.

0:20:240:20:27

-Now YOU spot some.

-Bye!

0:20:270:20:30

You can watch that Spot again on our website,

0:20:370:20:40

and if you spot some fungi, you could earn a green star.

0:20:400:20:44

But please do remember not to pick or even touch them.

0:20:440:20:48

A lot of toadstools can be very, very poisonous. Draw a picture!

0:20:480:20:52

-Um, Sky? I think we're coming in to land.

-Oh, thanks, Jay.

0:20:520:20:57

Places, everyone!

0:20:570:20:59

-And whenever we land, it's...

-ALL: Time for a song!

0:21:070:21:13

# Listen!

0:21:200:21:22

# We're looking

0:21:240:21:26

# For a trail on the ground

0:21:280:21:30

# For a sign or a sound in the...

0:21:300:21:33

# Silence... # WHINES

0:21:330:21:36

# Something's hiding

0:21:360:21:38

# Something's smelling... #

0:21:390:21:42

Poo!

0:21:420:21:43

# All the animals snuggle up

0:21:430:21:46

# Thinking, "Nobody can...find us!"

0:21:460:21:50

# We're looking for a hole where a mouse is sleeping

0:21:500:21:56

# We're searching under leaves where a bug's been creeping

0:21:560:21:59

# Following the trail of food half-eaten

0:21:590:22:03

# What's that there under the tree...? #

0:22:030:22:06

Ssh!

0:22:060:22:07

# Listen!

0:22:070:22:08

# We might be missing

0:22:110:22:12

# A sign or a clue

0:22:140:22:17

# That could lead us all to

0:22:170:22:19

# Who knows where or what?

0:22:190:22:21

# We're looking for a branch where a squirrel is climbing

0:22:380:22:42

# Or underneath a flower where a snail's been hiding

0:22:420:22:46

# Following tracks to a nest or a warren

0:22:460:22:50

# What's in that hole in the ground...? #

0:22:500:22:52

Ssshhhhh!

0:22:520:22:53

# Listen

0:22:530:22:56

# We're looking

0:22:570:22:59

# For a trail on the ground

0:23:010:23:03

# For a sight or a sound in the...

0:23:030:23:05

# Silence

0:23:050:23:08

# For a trail on the ground

0:23:080:23:10

# For a sight or a sound in the...

0:23:100:23:13

# Silence

0:23:130:23:16

# For a trail on the ground

0:23:160:23:19

# For a sight or a sound in the...

0:23:190:23:22

# Silence. #

0:23:220:23:24

Sshhh!

0:23:260:23:29

# Listen...

0:23:290:23:31

# Listen. #

0:23:350:23:36

OWL HOOTS

0:23:370:23:40

Bye!

0:23:400:23:42

Look out for some fungi this week!

0:23:420:23:44

-Or even a deer.

-Or see if you can plant some apple pips.

0:23:440:23:48

-Or seed of any other fruit. See you next week.

-Bye!
