A flock of flightless birds are peacefully nesting when their local, towering, volcano starts to signal that it might be about to erupt. Most of them skedaddle to the safety of the sea, but one pair can't decide what to do with their four eggs. Two each? Well that's the plan until one of them chickens out and leaves the other trying to get all four to the water. Certainly two, maybe even three - but four? Choices, choices... Then, when nature seems at it's most violent, it also appears at it's most practical. This is quite an entertaining short animation made by some French students who tell this story of comic indecision well whilst creating some lively flapping creatures that wouldn't look out of place in an Aardman film.
