Late evening view in the dark along the harbor.

Texas Coast-1945

An early arrival. Found in the same area as the nesting pair last year. Down on the path at Lake View.

The Baltimore Orioles usually hang out near the tree tops, so I feel fortunate when several of them came down to a level for a nice portrait.

Baltimore Oriole (female), Wildwood Lake, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. The Baltimore Oriole received its name from the resemblance of the male's colors to those on the coat-of-arms of Lord Baltimore.

Loving the gorgeous Baltimore Orioles visiting the yard.

This little guy was putting up quite the racket. Mom was out getting bugs and stopped in once in a while to feed it. Shot in a very dark woods.

This is the third of a trio of uncommon to rare birds that showed up at this location.

Not a bad photo, if you ignore the branch!

Oriole and Raven Stadiums as seen while flying low over Baltimore. You can see Interstate 95 running along the top side of the frame with I-395 spur that comes into the downtown area dropping down into the scene coming past the stadiums.

Odd fact: The Baltimore Oriole received its name from the fact that the male's colors resembled those on the coat of arms of Lord Baltimore.

FOY sighting of this scarce favorite

Most Baltimore Orioles spend their winters basking in sunny climes from southern Mexico to northwestern South America or on islands in the Caribbean. Some winter along the Gulf Coast and elsewhere in the southeastern United States. Every April and May, they return to their breeding grounds, where males try to assert their dominance over a 2-3 acre plot of land and wait for females to arrive.

Baltimore, Maryland

Baltimore orioles have very bold and pretty plumage, especially when seen in person. I believe this is a younger male as the head and neck are not fully black. Still quite pretty.

From what I've seen in photos, these birds are easy to attract with oranges. I will have to give that a try!

Still the odd one showing up at the backyard feeders.
