When best friends Cork and Fuzz go to the pond to collect shiny stones, they happen upon a duck's nest just as the eggs are hatching and Fuzz, who is wearing a feather from his collection, is collected by the mother duck.
Although Cork the muskrat is short and likes to find things and Fuzz the possum is tall and likes to keep things, the pair remain best friends even after Fuzz finds Cork's lost stone and decides to keep it.
When Cork and Fuzz agree to babysit a young porcupine, Cork ends up doing most of the work, and when Fuzz gets into some trouble, it is up to both Cork and the baby to come to his assistance.
As best friends Cork, a muskrat, and Fuzz, a possum, try to catch a mysterious floating yellow object, Fuzz eagerly keeps taking action while Cork cautions him to wait a moment first.
