Serene Ghibli-Style Forest Journey

the prompt

A serene hand-drawn 2D animation in Studio Ghibli style, beginning with a tranquil winter landscape transitioning to early spring, with a winding river partially covered in ice, snow-dusted banks, and trees with bare branches and golden leaves under a soft sunrise. The camera slowly pushes forward over the river. Transition to a sun-dappled forest floor with melting snow and blooming purple crocus flowers, petals fall as the camera tilts up. A vibrant red fox walks along a dirt path through the forest, followed by a tracking shot. The fox approaches a large tree with a hollow. Pink petals fall as the fox pauses. Close-up on the fox's face, it blinks. A small duckling nestles under the sleeping fox. The fox then looks up, before standing by a calm lake at golden hour, watching a flock of geese fly in V-formation. A single goose lands by the fox, they touch noses gently. The scene ends with the fox watching the geese swim on the reflective lake under a warm sunset, with distant rolling hills.
