Nice bright colors on the oriole. Did you put the oranges out because they eat them or because the color attracts them?
My mother had several bird feeders in a tree close to our bay window. We got lots of finches going after I think thistle seeds? There was a whole army of the finches with all different colorations.. We also got the occasional hummingbird and lots of other pretty ones but never an oriole.
Unfortunately I have not kept up the feeding. I am never around to look out the window to see them . I do like seeing all the variety though.
