1997 film by Stephen A. Fossati
Father of the Bird is a 1997 traditionally animated Looney Tunes short film directed and co-produced by Stephen A. Fossati and produced by Chuck Jones and Linda Jones Clough starring Sylvester . This short only had a limited theatrical release and was the only other Sylvester short Jones' team worked on in which the character speaks (the other being The Scarlet Pumpernickel (the only one of the two directed by Jones himself)). This was also the final Sylvester cartoon Chuck Jones was involved with. It was also the final Looney Tunes /Merrie Melodies short to have Jones involved in and to use traditional cel animation .
Sylvester finds a sparrow egg in a nest. Before he can eat it for breakfast however, a little bird hatches out and calls him "Mama." He warms to the idea of being a father and instead of eating it, he protects the bird throughout a series of near-disasters.
