I only found out a little while before seeing this that Pixar had been bought by Walt Disney Pictures studios, it does make sense, and Disney can afford it, also owning Miramax. Anyway, this was the short computer animated film shown before the full-length feature of Disney and Pixar's tenth outing with Up. The film opens with storks carrying many baby humans and animals to their designated destinations, after they have been formed by the cuddly looking cloud characters. It focuses on the insecure grey cloud, Gus, who can't quite make the same cute creatures as all the other clouds, meaning that the loyal stork willing taking deliveries from him, Peck, is in for all sorts of trouble. He suffers crocodile bites, ram buts and porcupine pricks. Peck is tempted to go to another cloud after seeing many other nicer creations, which makes Gus thundering mad, and cry with rain, but Peck knows he wouldn't leave his friend, and gets himself protective gear to carry on, and deliver an electric eel. A very well-animated, funny and cute family cartoon short that I can see wining the Oscar for Best Short Animated Film. Very good!
