North Country explorer from Hankinson, ND
I was going down a 2 lane road on this rainy day when I went passed what I thought was an Oriole and his mate. About a mile down the road I found a place to turn around, rolled down my window (camera is always within reach) and drove past them as the female flew away. I couldn't get a shot so I turned around again and drove by slowly. There was nowhere to pull over so I ended up with this photo on a momentary stop. Poor guy is all wet but seemed quite content. Female came back as I drove off.

Nice shot!! My mother had an Oriole that came to her feeder. I was kicking myself because I didn't have my camera and it was the first time either of us had seen this beautiful bird. I might add that she is 81yrs old and has fed birds for years. It is my understanding that they love grape jelly!!
