Tropical Storm Andrea’s rain passed over our area this morning, and now the wind has arrived. Reason enough to stay indoors and organize the archive. Here are a few photos that I’ve been saving for a rainy day.
The bird in the above photo moved through the yard too fast for me to get a good look at it. I would love some help with identification, if there is enough information in the photo.
Also with the next bird, which I believe is a brown thrasher?
I hope Andrea’s rain and wind prove to be nothing more than an inconvenience to everyone in its path…

beautiful photo…thanks for sharing
Thank you!
you are welcome
Hope all is well – did you get a lot of rain and wind? Thanks, as always, for sharing such wonderful photographs and commentary! XO
The storm fell apart, mostly, before reaching us. We got a bit of wind, not enough to do any damage, and lots of rain for the flowers.
