A storm frightens Sandy and his family but leaves them with a rescued injured oriole. They nurse the bird back to health in a cage, name it Birdie, and release it to fly south. Birdie returns a week later for meals then vanishes, only to reappear the next spring, confirming Sandy’s bond with the bird amid seasonal birder hope.
