Last week, I had the pleasure of visiting a friends very famous yard, north of Pike Lake where we were treated to excellent views of 15 newly arrived Baltimore Orioles and 3 Cape May Warblers that were enjoying slices of orange that was set out for them.
The following day, I looked out of our kitchen window and saw a male Oriole in our apple tree, so I went outside with some orange and hoped he'd come back ( which he very kindly did, and stuck around till near dark )
Here are the photos from our yard :

Nice images of a lovely bird-much better looking than the I saw I here in the UK a few winters ago.
Wow, these are very nice pictures Nick. This bird is so beautiful and the green background contrasts so much with its colors! It gives very nice shots. Well done mate!
