The Baltimore Oriole received its name from the fact that the male's colors resembled those on the coat of arms of Lord Baltimore. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
PCC 7341 on Route 8 in Baltimore, Md. (Aug. 1963)*
Kodachrome my collection, C G Parsons photographer.
. . . Besides this male Baltimore Oriole, I also had some nice "Happy Spring" poses from a nesting pair of Tree Swallows! This guy waited me out, though, it took him an hour before he would come back to the feeder for his picture!
Have a great week Facebook, Flickr, and 500px friends!
One of the goals I had when traveling to New York to camp and visit family was to get some photos of the Baltimore Orioles that frequent my sister's feeder. Unsuccessful until the very last evening I finally did catch a couple of OK shots. Late in the day we were heading back to our camp at the end of the driveway that connects my sister's house to the "The Pond" and there he was! I have the exact same feeder that she has but it still needs to be painted that bright orange color that these birds seem to love and then next spring when the one or two that I get a quick glimpse of may hang around a bit. :D And if not, I found out that the Catbirds also love jelly and mealworms and I have plenty of Catbirds! LOL See one other photo in first comment box below.

I had seen a Baltimore Oriole in an apple tree at Mud Lake last year and couldn't wait to go back this Spring. I was delighted to see the Baltimore Oriole peaking out of the blooms.
This mature male oriole and a lighter first summer bird were chasing and fighting over a nearby female. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
At first, I was not completely sure that this was a Baltimore Oriole. I am use to a very vibrant orange on the Baltimore, and this one seemed to be a bit yellowish-orange. Not sure why this is case, in this particular instance. This bird was singing from the top of his lungs, and evidently looking for a mate.
It is Monday. Enjoy the day!
Shattering the impression that icterids can't sing. These songbirds are eagerly awaited. Lake St. Clair Metropark.
I love when the Baltimore orioles pass through during migration. They rarely stay around long but they do spend a little time seeking out some treats from my bird yard. They will come to nectar bearing flowers, orange slices, jelly (they seem to especially like grape) and water.
These were in my yard, Montell, Uvalde County, Texas. May 2022
A juvenile - not quite as brightly colored
A migrating male oriole in the back yard of our friend Janice. Her property borders on the mouth of Mobile Bay, across the road south is the Gulf of Mexico. Pretty lazy birding today. Along with Janice and our friend Brody we enjoyed crab and salmon dip and Key Lime pie with a glass of Chardonnay as we watched parulas, grosbeaks, Indigos and others. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
Do not use my images without asking first, please and thank you!
We were passing through a bad neighborhood on the way to the National Aquarium in Baltimore, Maryland, yesterday. I saw this while we were stopped at a red-light, and had to take a picture to post here on Flickr. Passing through neighborhoods' like this makes me so thankful for what God has blessed me with.
Today marks 23 years since the horrible, tragic events of 9/11.
It's one of those days that you remember exactly where you were and what you were doing. One plus to that time was the way our country came together as one, which is sorely missing now.
The tall building here is Baltimore's World Trade Center - HWW!
