I'm no help on ID'ing this one since the only Baltimore Orioles I've ever seen have been on the baseball diamond. Great pics of this one, though.
Great images of a beautiful looking little bird. Post an image on Birdforum they have an ID page and the members will answer this in no time. Free to join just google Birdforum.
A wealth of knowledge on there.
No idea on the ID, but a lovely bird Phylliso.
Sally,these birds usually nest near orchards if they are orioles.I`m in the forest so I may just go to the bird forum like you suggested,Andrew,I did not know of the forum,thanks.
Thank-you,Keith,I was just visiting you,your pictures are always breath taking & I always learn something new,phylliso
Very pretty bird. I love looking at the pics you post!
One vote for a lady Baltimore Oriole here. When you see the male you'll know for sure. We get them in the spring in Michigan. They like to hang in pairs. A half an orange and some grape jelly will have them standing in line. Seeing your beautiful set really makes me crazy for Spring.
Beautiful photo.Hope ypu get the male. Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
Hey Phyllis,
First off, thanks so much for your loving support and kindness to me always. I feel like we are kindred spirits.:0) I appreciate the loving remarks, it means alot to me. I am eagerly antici[pating the arrival of your package. I have come into a ton of fabric lately...Do you need any? Hugs, Robin
Looks like somebody was posing for the camera! LOL Everyone knows I am terrible at bird identification...does pretty count?
