Mamma Buzzard (voiced by Sara Berner) has her offspring bring back anything they can capture for dinner. One of them flies home with a cow—still being milked!

The farmer walks away, then realises something is wrong. He’s in mid-air. Here are some of the drawings that follow.

There are scenes wilder than this. In fact, I thought I had posted frames from my favourite perspective scene in this cartoon but can’t find them. A draught post must have been eaten along the way.
Clampett’s love of radio is evident in this cartoon as he rips off the Mortimer Snerd character from the Edgar Bergen/Charlie McCarthy show and gets Kent Rogers to imitate him as the dullard Beaky Buzzard (the last line is a catchphrase from The Great Gildersleeve).
“The Arkansas Traveller” is heard a lot on the soundtrack. Backgrounds are by Dick Thomas.
Not only is Arkansas Traveller featured, but at one point its sister tune "Bringing Home a Baby Bumblebee" is even sung by Beaky...that is, until the baby's mother stings him in the ass. Great stuff, great cartoon.
ReplyDeleteThey're the same tune as far as I know. :-)SC
