Something from my childhood
I've been remembering an animated scene for a few years now, but never can remember more than this: It's a movie (or series) where townsfolk are chopping down trees, and animals are trying to do various things to get them to stop. The scene I remember strongest has birds blocking everyone's chimneys so they can't cook their lunches. The men decide to continue chopping trees despite not having a cooked meal for lunch, and specifically I remember one of the men telling his wife he'd just eat a piece of cheese.
All I know is it's not Ferngully or Once Upon a Forest. I cannot remember for certain or not if there are little people working with the animals.
Thank you u/Original_Ad3529 for pointing me in the right direction, it was Back to the Forest/Nodoka Mori no Dobutsu Daisakusen.
