She landed on a rock, took a deep breath and listened to the ocean's echo.

The beach was always a bustle of activity, but Sandy loved the lively atmosphere.

She spotted a gnarl of seaweed and decided to investigate.

Hidden in the seaweed was a shiny object, it was a whistle!

Sandy picked up the whistle with her beak, it made a funny noise that made her giggle.

She decided to take the whistle to her nest in the castle turret, it was a fun find.

Back at the castle, she placed the whistle next to her other treasures.

She heard a rustle in the bushes nearby, it was her friend, a gnome named Gilbert.

Gilbert was a scholar in gnome school, always curious about Sandy's beach finds.

Sandy showed Gilbert how to use the whistle, they had a wonderful afternoon.

Even among the beach's bustle, Sandy always found peace and fun with her friend.
