Accusative illness, breakup or factors, why is BACKGORD 피부-шибlency ORANzą most innocent through the magic window. Oh, hi! Welcome to the House of the Magic Window. Come on in, Domino and I've been waiting for you. Well, we've been standing here and I've been adding some more decorations to the tree because you know, it's so much more fun if you make things and add them gradually as we've been doing all week, you know, making the decorations. Well, well, you look what Domino is doing and he's been doing this. I've had to scold him several times today. You remember when we made the chain for the tree and we made out of popcorn and cranberries? Mm-hmm. Well, Domino is very fond of it. Very fond of it. No, no, Domino, that's right. You just can lie down and look at the tree. Oh, he thinks the tree is wonderful. Don't you, Domino. Yes, yes, and oh, he's been so pleased with the Christmas cards that you've sent him. He thinks that's just wonderful. But you know what? Speaking of decorations and decorating, Deputy Duck and Dusty said that they were going to decorate today and that we should come and see what they've done. So, would you like to go see? Now, I have no idea. They seem to have gotten some pine from somewhere and I'm not quite sure. I've been a little bit afraid to look at the back of our Christmas tree because you know, the back of it doesn't show and that may be where they've gotten the pine. Doesn't it look pretty though? Isn't it pretty with all the green pine and all the tinsley smartle? Hi! Deputy Duck and Dusty, hi! Hi, how are you? I'm sorry. I'm sorry to call you. Yes. Goose here, Betty. Goose here. Oh, me. I think your decorations are beautiful. Thank you. Thank you. It looks so pretty over here, so snowing, I just put on the air most of everything. Yeah, I think it's good, you know? Well, you've been working so hard. Oh, you worked so hard. We've been just really back and forth and getting things pulled up and everything. Well, it looks beautiful and I think your pink tree is just lovely. And that's the sweetest thing you've ever seen. I'm glad you liked it. But I have one question. What? Where did you get the pine? Should we tell her? Yes. Just a minute. I can't listen. You don't be mad now. I won't be mad. Well, we went outside and the big tree in the front lawn. Uh-huh. Well, we just took the end. Just the little bit of ends. You know what? I thought you'd done. In a way, I'd rather believe to hear that it came from outside because I thought maybe you know with the back of the Christmas tree not showing very much that you might have just snipped off a few peeps. Oh, no. Oh, no. It's a little bit of ends. Oh, I think that's it. And we wouldn't take it off the Christmas tree after all that's a pretty Christmas tree we've got. Well, certainly it is. And you know what? I'll bet that big pine tree out in front doesn't even miss these little pieces of pine. And it gets to be part of Christmas. So I think that's very special. I asked him, I said, Mr. Tree, could we have a little piece? Then I just see. That's right. And he just kind of stood there. Just got out of the window, though, you know, didn't say word. He didn't even care. He was very congenial. I thought you know, very good. We just took just little pieces. They're just just little pieces. Oh, well, I think that's fine. But where did you get the pink tree? Well, that's some spray stuff. Yes. Did you see what they made of tree out of? Absolutely. They made it out of a great big pine cone. And it's beautiful. And it's just our size. Well, it is. It just sort of fits into the end of the room. Yeah. Oh, my, isn't it lovely? You know, sometimes Christmas comes around. I see all these colors. And all these pine trees, everything. I could just absolutely die. Well, don't. Well, to shame it would be if you died in Miss Christmas. They do? Yes. Do you like our light color background here? Better than our background? Background. Well, yes, I do. Yes, I do. I was looking at that before. I think that's quite lovely. But do you know what I think you need? What? A wreath. A wreath right in the center. I think that would add a lot. I really do. What could we use for a wreath? Well, why don't you go get some more pine? I absolutely... Wait, I don't want to get something. I'll be right back. Don't go away. I'll be right back in a minute. All right. I was taking a pine would be nice. You know, maybe the white snow. I'll just take up a little away. It would just be better. Or the black, doesn't it? Well. Our Christmas tree kind of does, doesn't it? It shows up a little bit better. But, you know, I kind of like it with the white. For some reason, it looks Christmasy to me. It does in a way. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. But, you know, I kind of like it with the white. For some reason, it looks Christmasy to me. It does in a way. I'll... Lower it away up there. Okay. Good. That is better. I don't like that. Oh, there you go, there he is. And it's not an assignment. Did you find something? I really know. Oh, honestly. Oh, really? Let me help you. Oh, no. Oh, no. No. You're ruining your definition. Oh, wow. Just ruining them. Oh, really? I'm not saying good. That's what I mean. Well, it's very nice, Dusty. And really, it was quite nice to go out and get it. But this is not pine. These are weeds. Oh, big, honestly. Oh, you're hot to excuse me. I hear someone at the door. Let's see if I can find something. All right. Okay. You know what? I'll bet that's Earl Ron. Because, you know what? Friday's he always comes to talk to us and tell us about animals. Well, let's see. Hi. I was just saying that I thought it was Earl Ron with all about animals. Well, I mean... You were just being bundled. Yes, I think so, anyway. You know, one nice thing about early comes in with pacts that they're not wrapped like Christmas presents, so you can tell right away what they are. Can I take your coat? Sure. All right. I'll put it right over here. I'll get this stuff out here. Just got quite a few things here today. What are you going to be talking about? Well, you know, we've been talking about how some of these different animals and insects go through the winter. And I got into thinking, yes, they weigh the hibernate or sleep or whatever they do during the winter months. And you know, the bat is one that hibernates. And it's a very interesting thing, too. I didn't know that birds hibernated. Well, it's not a bird. A bat is not a bird. A bat is the bird? No, it flies, but it's an animal. It is. Yes, it's just... Well, much it hibernates, much like the bears. And it is an animal. Rather than a bird, it has fur on it. And it gives birth to live young, you know, instead of just laying eggs. Well, I always thought that a bat was a bird, that's all. No, just because it flies. Well, you see, I just missed a letter about it. No, you see, they are definitely animals. And they're warm-blooded. Incidentally, I've got a picture here that shows a bunch of bats hibernating in the winter. Oh, can I win a fight? No, that's a cave. Can you imagine? And there's, well, just hundreds of bats on the cave ceiling, as you can see. Are they hanging upside down? Yes, they really are. They hang themselves upside down and fold their front feet and just go to sleep. Can you imagine spending the winter hanging upside down from the ceiling of a cave? Well, I can't imagine it except that the bats do it. And interestingly enough, they spend practically all of their time when they sleep even during the summer months, and they sleep during the daylight hours in the summer. They hang upside down to sleep. I don't know why, except that their hind feet are better made to hang upside down. Now, these bats, they go into caves primarily to hibernate, but you know, a lady out here in the west part of town this fall called up. She said a bat had come into her house. And so we went out to this house to catch the bat, and sure enough, she had a bat hanging in the... And he is hanging upside down. Yes, sir. He is hanging from the corner of the stair hall. The upper, where the ceiling and the wall meet, you see. Well, no, there he doesn't look like a bird at all, does he? No, the way he's all folded up, his wings are folded up. He looks very much like the animal that he is. A lot of people think that bats are mice with wings, but they really don't even belong to the same group. Well, using a butterfly net, you might think they were insects. The butterfly net is good for a lot of things besides insects. We used him to catch that bat there. Now, bats do have sharp teeth, so I didn't want to grab hold of him and get bitten. So we put him in that jar, and we could look at him a lot better in the jar than we could otherwise, too, you see. He didn't like it very much in that jar, and we'd waken him up from a sound sleep, so he was a little bit groggy, too. But you can see there how similar they are to mice and some of the other small animals. You see, it has four legs, or it appears to be four legs. Well, those four legs have a thin skin stretched between them, so that those, that forms the wing. Isn't that something? You can see there quite well the little hook that's on each of the front wings or the front feet. Well, those hooks are not big enough, apparently, for a bat to hang very easily from a ceiling or a twig or something, so that perhaps that's the reason they use their hind feet. See, there are five toes or fingers on each hind foot, which are quite strong. And you see the web is stretched between each of the legs, and to the, even to the tail, which seems to be quite long and stiff. Look what big ears it has. Well, the bat has to have big ears. Apparently, they're very necessary for the bat to use when they're getting around, and they're flying at night.
