Searching for Ounce

It was such a beautiful day, I decided to go for a walk with my sparrow Ounce.  We know how Ounce cannot resist water, so I went looking near all the usual places.  I couldn't find Ounce anywhere, and of course that is not too surprising, but after scouring puddle after puddle and even small lakes I gave up and headed home.

Imagine my surprise when there, in a sidewalk cherry tree, was Ounce! Ounce would not say what he was doing in a strange cherry tree and kept hiding his face in a shadow.  I couldn't say for sure, but I feel certain that Ounce was blushing.
