The Magnificent Baltimore Oriole Male

I stood near the feeders, tucked a bit into some bushes. I had a ringside view of mama and papa oriole enjoying grape jelly and singing. They are both astonishingly tropical looking compared with many drabber New England birds.

I the extras, you can see them taking turns enjoying the jelly and the Mrs with a beak filled with jelly.

For the Record,
This day came in with a clouds and blue skies. A bit muggy, I suspect rain is on the way. It was supposed to be a very rainy week, so we have been lucky.


All hands in love with our returning birds,
