Eastern Oriole

This used to be called a Baltimore Oriole. I don't know why the name changed, but it's the same bird. To keep them coming all summer, feed them watered down grape jelly.

Wonderful capture, Shirley!

I didn't know they changed the name - I still all them Baltimore Orioles! And I didn't know they drank nectar - is it like the nectar for hummingbirds?

[Menarose]

Oh my gosh, I love your bird captures!

[Ramona]

Nice shot, they are cute birds.

[Terry]

I have never seen one of these in the wild.

Maybe the baseball team has the name copyrighted!?! :-)

[Beverly Carmichael]

Nice one! And you are nice to spoil them.

[Laura Thornton]

WOW. I didn't know what they looked like. I thought they were black with red stripes on their wings. Great capture. And I thought they liked orange slices! thanks for the tips!
