0:03:05 > 0:03:08Hey, they've got a lovely garden here, you know.

0:03:08 > 0:03:10Some right pretty flowers.

0:03:10 > 0:03:14I reckon I'll find loads of things for me log book today.

0:03:14 > 0:03:18But I can't hang about. I've got to go and find those Tiddlers.

0:03:18 > 0:03:19So, erm...

0:03:19 > 0:03:23Oh - speaking of which, I think I spied 'em.

0:03:28 > 0:03:32Hey! There we are! Oh, it's Adib and Khadija. Hello, Tiddlers!

0:03:32 > 0:03:34- Hello, Mr Bloom!- Hello!

0:03:34 > 0:03:38- Hello, mums and dads. - Hello, Mr Bloom.- Hello, Mr Bloom.

0:03:38 > 0:03:40What have you been growing here?

0:03:40 > 0:03:44- Strawberries.- Strawberries. - Now, who likes strawberries?

0:03:44 > 0:03:48- Me!- Me!- Mums and dads as well. Everyone likes strawberries.

0:03:48 > 0:03:52- Show me some strawberries, Adib. - There's a big one here.

0:03:52 > 0:03:55Oh, he's a big fella. What about you, Khadija?

0:03:55 > 0:03:56And one there.

0:03:56 > 0:04:00- And you grew these strawberries from seeds, didn't you, Tiddlers?- Yeah.

0:04:00 > 0:04:04- We've got some seeds left over, Mr Bloom. Do you want them?- Yeah!

0:04:04 > 0:04:08That's very kind of you. You know what I could do with these?

0:04:08 > 0:04:12I could put them in me log book so I can remember our day together.

0:04:12 > 0:04:17- Very good. Are these strawberries ready to eat yet?- No.- No.

0:04:17 > 0:04:20- We have to wait.- That's right. We have to wait for them to...

0:04:20 > 0:04:22- Grow big!- Yeah.

0:04:22 > 0:04:24What else have you been doing?

0:04:24 > 0:04:26We saw some caterpillars and butterflies.

0:04:26 > 0:04:31- Hey, that sounds exciting. So which way is it, Adib?- This way, Mr Bloom.

0:04:31 > 0:04:34OK, let's hop and skip and jump!

0:04:39 > 0:04:42Ooh, hello. Who's this, Adib?

0:04:42 > 0:04:43This is Paul.

0:04:43 > 0:04:47- He's from Lost Butterflies Found. - Oh, right, I see.

0:04:47 > 0:04:51- Hello, Paul.- Hello, Mr Bloom. Pleasure to meet you.- Likewise.

0:04:51 > 0:04:53So what does Paul do?

0:04:53 > 0:04:56He looks after caterpillars, moths and butterflies.

0:04:56 > 0:04:58- Is that right, Paul?- Yes, we do.

0:04:58 > 0:05:02We build new homes for homeless butterflies and moths.

0:05:02 > 0:05:06Yay! Paul, have you got any caterpillars you could show us?

0:05:06 > 0:05:10You see the little black things? That's the caterpillars. Yes.

0:05:10 > 0:05:12- Look at that.- Wow!

0:05:12 > 0:05:14I brought one for you as well, Khadija.

0:05:14 > 0:05:18They're brand-new caterpillars. They only hatched two days ago.

0:05:18 > 0:05:21Oooh, how does that feel, Khadija?

0:05:21 > 0:05:23- A bit tickly.- Tickly?

0:05:23 > 0:05:26'There are all sorts of different caterpillars.

0:05:26 > 0:05:29'Always ask a grown-up if it's safe to pick one up.'

0:05:29 > 0:05:32- I can see my one as well. - Is he moving, Adib?

0:05:32 > 0:05:36Oh, and what are they doing with that fennel frond?

0:05:36 > 0:05:38Eating some of the leaves.

0:05:38 > 0:05:41How big will these caterpillars grow?

0:05:41 > 0:05:44- Oh, they'll grow nearly as big as my finger here.- Really?

0:05:44 > 0:05:48- They'll have to eat a lot to grow that big, won't they?- Yeah.

0:05:48 > 0:05:50They'll eat all that.

0:05:50 > 0:05:54Tiddlers, once caterpillars have eaten everything they can

0:05:54 > 0:05:58and they're full to the brim and nice and big, what happens then?

0:05:58 > 0:06:00They become into a cocoon.

0:06:00 > 0:06:05Yeah. They transform into cocoons or chrysalises.

0:06:05 > 0:06:09Well, let's have a look here. Oh, wow!

0:06:09 > 0:06:13- So there's a caterpillar inside there?- There is. That's right.

0:06:13 > 0:06:16So he's having a sleep in that sleeping bag, is he?

0:06:16 > 0:06:19- Yes. It's just like a sleeping bag. - Is he ready to wake up?

0:06:19 > 0:06:21When they wake up, they pop out.

0:06:21 > 0:06:25- And then he gets on his business as a butterfly.- Yes.

0:06:25 > 0:06:28- So he's a transformer, isn't he? - Oh, he is.

0:06:28 > 0:06:31If they don't need these cocoons once they fly off,

0:06:31 > 0:06:35- have you any spare I can have? - I have a special one for you.

0:06:35 > 0:06:39This is from the largest moth in Europe. This is from a silk moth.

0:06:39 > 0:06:41Wow! Look at that!

0:06:41 > 0:06:42That's huge.

0:06:42 > 0:06:45And you know where I can put this, Khadija?

0:06:45 > 0:06:47In your log book, Mr Bloom.

0:06:47 > 0:06:48That's right. In me log book.

0:06:48 > 0:06:50- Oh, hang on... - DING-DING

0:06:50 > 0:06:52It's me Route Finder.

0:06:52 > 0:06:55Oh, aye. The Route Finder wants to show us more

0:06:55 > 0:06:57about butterflies and caterpillars.

0:06:57 > 0:07:01Look at this butterfly breaking out of its chrysalis.

0:07:01 > 0:07:03Oh, isn't it beautiful?

0:07:03 > 0:07:07There are lots of different butterflies and moths.

0:07:07 > 0:07:08Some are big.

0:07:08 > 0:07:10And some are small.

0:07:10 > 0:07:12And some are very colourful.

0:07:13 > 0:07:17Wow! Look at all those butterflies fluttering away.

0:07:18 > 0:07:22Whooo! Well, there we go, Tiddlers.

0:07:22 > 0:07:26- Butterflies are some amazing creatures, aren't they?- Yeah.- Yeah.

0:07:26 > 0:07:29Now, Paul said we might be able to see some butterflies.

0:07:29 > 0:07:31What butterflies do you have?

0:07:31 > 0:07:35We've got one of the rarest butterflies in the country.

0:07:35 > 0:07:36A European swallowtail.

0:07:36 > 0:07:39- Would you like to hold one? - I'd love to hold one.

0:07:39 > 0:07:41- You show me what to do, Paul. - I will.

0:07:41 > 0:07:45If I take this... Because they see red, and they love fruit.

0:07:45 > 0:07:49This is a old strawberry, one you grew, Khadija.

0:07:49 > 0:07:52- Yep.- So if I put a bit of that on your finger, OK?

0:07:52 > 0:07:56- Because they love that. Let's see if I can get one out for you.- OK.

0:08:01 > 0:08:03- Hello...- Very, very gently...

0:08:03 > 0:08:05Hey, hello there, fella.

0:08:05 > 0:08:07European swallowtail butterfly.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09Wow, Tiddlers. Look at this.

0:08:09 > 0:08:11They're very pretty colours.

0:08:13 > 0:08:15What colours can you see, Adib?

0:08:15 > 0:08:18Black, yellow, blue and red.

0:08:20 > 0:08:24Do you know where this butterfly came from, Khadija?

0:08:24 > 0:08:28It came from the cocoon that we saw and the caterpillar that we saw.

0:08:28 > 0:08:31That's right. All those teeny black caterpillars,

0:08:31 > 0:08:35they go into that chrysalis and do their magic transformation

0:08:35 > 0:08:39and turn into a beautiful butterfly like this.

0:08:39 > 0:08:41What does he like to eat, Paul?

0:08:41 > 0:08:44He likes purple flowers, because he can see only purple and red.

0:08:44 > 0:08:47I've got a purple bush. This is a Buddleia.

0:08:47 > 0:08:50Would you like to go up there? All right, go on.

0:08:50 > 0:08:54- Do you reckon he's happy there? - Yeah.- Yeah.- Yeah?

0:08:54 > 0:08:56So, Adib, what shall we do now?

0:08:56 > 0:08:59Plant some flowers to help the butterflies.

0:08:59 > 0:09:02Ooh, sounds like a good idea to me. Let's go!

0:09:02 > 0:09:04- Bye, Paul!- Bye-bye, Mr Bloom.

0:09:08 > 0:09:11- Hey! Tiddlers, who's this? - Branca.- Branca.

0:09:11 > 0:09:13- Hello, Branca.- Hello, Mr Bloom.

0:09:13 > 0:09:17I believe we're going to do something to help the butterflies.

0:09:17 > 0:09:20That's right. We're going to plant on our hugel bed.

0:09:20 > 0:09:24- We're planting for butterflies and moths.- A hugel bed?

0:09:24 > 0:09:26That's a nice word. Can you say hugel bed?

0:09:26 > 0:09:28- Hugel bed.- Hugel bed.

0:09:28 > 0:09:31Yeah. So, erm...what's a hugel bed?

0:09:31 > 0:09:33It's like a giant compost heap.

0:09:33 > 0:09:36Really? A giant compost heap for butterflies.

0:09:36 > 0:09:38- Shall we get planting? - Yeah.- Yeah.- OK!

0:09:40 > 0:09:43Oh, this is good soil for growing.

0:09:43 > 0:09:46- See how nice and soft that is?- Yeah.

0:09:46 > 0:09:49That's because we have all the creepy-crawlies.

0:09:49 > 0:09:51One of these just came in my hand.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54Look at that daddy woodlouse. He's a biggie, isn't it?

0:09:54 > 0:09:56We're looking for earthworms.

0:09:56 > 0:10:00'Earthworms make the soil good for plants to grow in.'

0:10:00 > 0:10:03Here we go. A big, fat one. Have you seen this, kids?

0:10:03 > 0:10:05- Look at that, Tiddlers! - A big, fat one!

0:10:05 > 0:10:08He's very busy doing important jobs underground.

0:10:08 > 0:10:10Oh!

0:10:11 > 0:10:14Here we go. There's your strawberry plant, Adib.

0:10:15 > 0:10:17We'll stick that in there.

0:10:17 > 0:10:20Welcome to your new home, strawberry plant.

0:10:24 > 0:10:28That's our Buddleia. This is the most popular butterfly bush.

0:10:28 > 0:10:31- What a butterfly's favourite colour? - Purple.- Purple.

0:10:31 > 0:10:33Yeah. I reckon it'll love this plant.

0:10:33 > 0:10:36- Have we done a good job? - Yeah.- Yeah.

0:10:36 > 0:10:39Yeah. I reckon the butterflies will love it here.

0:10:39 > 0:10:44'And everyone who lives around here can come and enjoy the butterflies.'

0:10:45 > 0:10:47Here, Mr Bloom.

0:10:47 > 0:10:50I have a present for you.

0:10:50 > 0:10:52It's a flower for your log book.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54Oh, thank you, Khadija.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57So, let's see what we've collected today.

0:10:57 > 0:10:59Pop that in there.

0:10:59 > 0:11:02- And then, look! What's this? - A cocoon.

0:11:02 > 0:11:05That's right. It's the cocoon Paul gave us.

0:11:05 > 0:11:06Yeah.

0:11:06 > 0:11:09Oh. And who gave me these?

0:11:09 > 0:11:11- Me.- Yeah, Adib.

0:11:11 > 0:11:15These are the leftover strawberry seeds.

0:11:15 > 0:11:17Well, there we are. A page full of memories.

0:12:00 > 0:12:02But it's time for me to go now.

0:12:02 > 0:12:07- So, you join me soon when I'll be... - Here and there!- Here and there!
