Brilliant Orange

It is always a treat when this colorful orange and black, Baltimore Oriole shows up. We actually had some show up at our feeder this Spring! Likely they were just passing through, since we haven’t seen them recently. The catbirds do love the grape jelly we have put out for the Orioles!

Birds in Flight

In the top photo is a Baltimore Oriole leaving a feeder after getting his grape jelly. This was the first time I saw this species this Spring. The bottom photo is of a female and male Northern Cardinal. The Cardinals were in a frenzy, going to and fro, the male chasing the female. It is obviously mating time!
