Tom hurls the long remainder of the rake handle at Jerry and the bird, but the bird quickly pecks it down to a stub. The woodpecker pecks off the end of the rake, allowing Jerry to run off, and sending Tom hurtling backwards into a mailbox. However, Tom manages to grab hold of the rake, trapping Jerry in the process, who cannot run away. Tom begins to chase the bird, who screeches "Mama! Mama! Mama! Mama!" Jerry emerges from his mousehole and decides to intervene, stopping Tom with a rake. An irritated Tom pours his drink onto the woodpecker, who then proceeds to peck through the entire leg of the deckchair, causing it to fold up with Tom still sitting on it. The woodpecker carelessly pecks slightly at the deckchair's leg. With nowhere to go, the despondent baby woodpecker wanders around the garden, where he comes across an unsuspecting Tom, who is sitting in a deckchair, drinking and reading a magazine. Eventually, Jerry gives up on the woodpecker and orders him out. Jerry returns the woodpecker to his nest, but the little bird follows Jerry back to his hole. The adorable, but naturally peckish woodpecker cannot resist pecking away at Jerry's furniture. Out comes a Baby Woodpecker who instantly takes to Jerry as his mother. Jerry wakes up to find himself sitting on the egg, which begins to hatch (and causes him to cover his legs in embarrassment and shock). The egg that she was nesting jumps up in her absence and falls to the ground, rolling into Jerry's mousehole and into his bed. It begins with a mother woodpecker leaving her nest for a brief lunch. Jerry falls onto the floor after the woodpecker pecks away the stool that he was about to sit on. Backgrounds by Don Driscoll and layouts by Dick Bickenbach.
