Even in the rain...

Hasn't rained hardly at all these past 2 years, so pouring rain & wind is a bit shocking. The kids and I were surprised to see in the brief moments where the rain let up a bit to see the cardinals and squirrels come out. But, someone else showed up, too, that I couldn't identify & the camera couldn't see clearly through the rain. So, we used my son's telescope. Long beak like a Thrasher or Oriole, but more butter yellow belly (unlike a Thrasher) and it's winter, which is not the time for Orioles. We took turns looking, searched through the Georgia Bird Book to no avail. All we can hope is that when the rain stops and the camera comes out, the bird will re-emerge.
