Plot
Percy discovers that the ducks are migrating, so he tries to get them to stay.
I honestly think the episode could've been for Bruno since this story is more akin to someone who could be new to things, especially since kids struggle adapting to new things. Have Bruno go though what Percy did in the episode until someone tells him that the ducks have a schedule to leave. Sure it's a bit similar to Percy but with Percy it just feels like he's been on the Island for a while since the show had many passing seasons and he just realised that ducks migrate when surely he would've known about that by now and this wouldn't be an episode set in the past since Beresford was in the episode and was introduced in the show's second season.
It just doesn't feel right to give this to someone like Percy when continuity is a thing. The episode isn't bad but it could've been better. The song, meh but at least it felt like it added something to the episode though it could work fine without it.
