Hooded Oriole
I've had a difficult time identifying this bird. I spent hours pouring over three books and the Internet trying to figure this one out. It had to be an oriole.
It doesn't have the "perfect" features of the Hooded Oriole. It is lacking the black cheek and surrounding eye area. But is the only oriole, out of six possibilities, with a long, curved bill and has all of the other features of the Hooded.
So the Hooded Oriole it must be...and I'm sticking to it.
