The scene in the animated classic, "Bambi", when he learns about his fellow creatures. Thanks to Internet Movie Database for the quotes :)


Thumper: [Bambi and Thumper see birds flying by. Bambi looks at them intriguingly.] Those are birds.

Bambi: Bur... Bur!

Thumper: Look! He's trying to talk.

Bambi: Bur!

Other rabbits: He's trying to say "bird."

Thumper: Say "bird."

Bambi [wiggles his nose]: Bur.

Thumper: Bird.

Bambi: Bur!

Thumper: Uh-uh. Bir-duh!

Other rabbits: Come on, say "bird." Say "bird!"

Bambi: Bird!

[Rabbits scatter and run to their mother.]

Other rabbits: He talked, he talked! He talked, Mama! The Young Prince said "bird."

Bambi: Bird, bird, bird, bird, bird bird!

[Bambi sees a yellow butterfly, which he begins to chase until it lands on his tail.]

Bambi: Bird!

Thumper: No, that's not a bird. That's a butterfly.

Bambi: Butterfly? Butter-

[Bambi sees the butterfly has now gone; he then runs over to a big yellow flower among some other wildflowers.]

Bambi: Butterfly!

Thumper: No, that's a flower.

Bambi: Flower?

Thumper: Uh-huh, it's purty.

[Thumper smells the flowers.]

Bambi: Purty.

[Bambi starts smelling the flowers, and comes nose-to-nose with a little skunk.]

Bambi: Flower!

Flower: Me?

Thumper [laughing hysterically]: That's not a flower! He's a little-

Flower: Oh, that's all right. He can call me a flower if he wants to; I don't mind.

Bambi: Purty. Purty flower!

Thumper [starts to giggle]: Oh, gosh.
