PBS children's show in the woods
Yes, another "What's that show again...?" question.
The show I'm remembering had a man that would walk through the woods to a certain spot where he'd tell a story or something (I'm more than sure it wasn't "The Storyteller"). I think there might have been puppets involved, like a bird in the tree or something.
One scene I clearly remember was when this alien/astronaut doll came and he wanted something from Earth and the man gave him a little necklace with a box full of tears, and he sang a song about salty tears.
The ending credits showed the man walking out of the woods and through nature and stuff.
This has been driving me crazy, I've searched everywhere and haven't got a clue. Please help!
